Hey, I have to ask you something. I have read some of your posts, and it sounds like you have been through hell and back. Would it appropriate to say a lot of what you went through was mainly because of the klonopin?
It sounds as though you are back on it again, but I thought I read a post of yours that mentioned your dr. weaning you off- you are maybe on something different?
A lot of what I'm asking is this: knowing what you know now, would you have still have gone on klonopin? Or would you have taken something different?
I don't know what it was prescribed for you for. For me, I'm debating klonopin use for major anxiety d/o, and the SSRI's I have been taking don't address the anxiety completely- my life is very limited because of this. Also, the SSRI's make me more nervious/tense in other ways and have, as you probably already know, a slew of other side effects.
