hello again tensor...

i've been on klon since july and have taken an extra dose maybe 3 times when extremely upset and had to go to work (retail and deal with people). i don't find it addictive, it's just my medicine.
however, i started on .5 mg twice daily in july and have since doubled...i used to anxious when i forgot to take a dose, but i think that was mostly psychosomatic.

i've asked my pdoc for xanax but he is more in favor of klonopin--the addiction factor, you know. here in my area, xanax is sold as "xanabars"--$5 or so a pill...no one does that with klono...

you said that Buspar has reduced your anxiety so you're not sure whether or not you need the klon. all i can speak from is experience: prozac eased much of my anxiety, but klon really does the job (so far). i like the augmentation (along with neurontin and lamictal).

i don't think you'll require higher dosages "each day." i found the need to increase after 5 months, but everyone is different.

have you tried therapy at all?
