In reply to Re: withdrawl from Klonopin REBOUND ANXIETY????, posted by Ryan123 on January 15, 2004, at 16:16:04
I was on klonopin at 10 mg per day for 3 years. I started with a new doctor and he had me come off it. Not only did I have "rebound anxiety," but I went through the most miserable hell imaginable. I could not eat or sleep, I could not relax, and I wanted to jump out of my skin. I had headaches, tremors, and generally felt lik hell for 2 months.
There is no doubt in my mind that I went through withdrawal. My doctors didn't take me seriously at first, either. Some part of what I went through could be attributed to rebound anxiety, but the other symptoms were certainly withdrawal.
I wish you the best of luck,
Girl
