In reply to Klonopin Withdrawal--Going Nicely (Backwards), posted by cubbybear on July 15, 2003, at 6:01:40
I had major trouble getting off the Klonopin and still wake with anxiety nearly every morning but it goes away once I take a shower. Now I can't tell if it's withdrawal, or standard B.P. symptoms. I tapered off of it to almost nothing. Once you are down to a very small amount, you can just use your teeth to break powder off, the taste is fine. Then just say you're done. At the smallest doses, I think it starts to be more psycholigal than anything else. I was using Trileptol and then added Seroquel to sleep. Now I am trying to lose the Seroquel. I'm on 900mg Trileptol and 125mg Lamictal. Seem to be stabalizing. I found many nightmare stories about the Klonopin and new I had to get off of it. Trileptol or Tegretol supposedly help stem the anxiety and get you off of it. Good luck.
