Yes, I think you have a point about Klonopin either causing depression or potentiating one's depression. It certainly does give me a "hangover" in the morning. Unfortunately, I get rebound anxiety from short-acting benzos such as Xanax and the rebound anxiety is intense. I don't rebound with Klonopin due to it's 18 hour (?) or so half-life. My pdoc has suggested that I taper down on Klonopin to see if I "pick up". How do people deal with the SSRI/SNRI apathy issue? Are there any augmentation strategies to help deal with this? I appreciate your input. Thanks, :) Anne
