Xanax is considered one of the hardest to detox from... During the benzo addiction spike in the 80's, special detox centers were established especially for the benzos in the UK.
Detoxing has a lot to do with how quickly the drug leaves the bloodstream. As you know, Paxil is harder than, say, Celexa to detox from because it leaves the bloodstream faster. Xanax leaves very fast.
And yes, if you become a Klonopin addict, you cannot simply taper off, you should definitely check in to a center.
