> Did the Klonopin REALLY, REALLY work? and how did the Klonopin feel? I hate to feel sedated or drugged and become anxious about it when I do, then realize I can't stop it (the effect of the med) or get it out of my symstem and then start to panic. At least now I can stop the panic by not driving certain places or just going home. With med's it's a whole other thing. Can you give me details on how you felt and why you had to take the Klonopin for 2 years? I've heard that it only takes a couple of weeks for the Celexa to work and the intial stage of increased anxiety to stop - no?
> Thanks,
> LisaI used the Klonopin over two years because it *works*! Yes..it *realllllllly* worked! My anxiety, even on ad's, is still very high, and I am going back to full-time klonopin. Even my pharmacist agreed the a.d./benzo combination is hard to beat for results.(Again..it does depend on the person.)
BTW...I never had to go beyond 2mg's of klonopin over a day. Even 0.5 mg's still does wonders for my anxiety. So, don't buy into the 'scare' tactics that you become a junkie on this stuff. With an a.d., and changes to your life where needed, it can and has been a lifesaver.
