In reply to how bout clonazepam from 19 to 99?, posted by jonh kimble on February 9, 2004, at 23:51:39
> can I do that? this is the only drug that helps me and i need help (i have most anxiety disorders namable, not too much ocd) I could get addicted, which would mean realling on an extremly effective side effect free drug (god forbid) therefor it is logical to drink 40's at every social occasion, live in hell or limbo at best (unable to enjoy anything for fear of...) and ultamately wish i was dead. But at least it wasnt the doctors fault for getting me into clono addiction. Look for the logic i cant find it either.

> anyway im off topic. is it plausible to expect the effects i got from 2 mgs of clono every day for the rest of my life? even if i go up a bit, who cares. is this possible though?For what it's worth...I was taking 4mg of Klonopin for about 6 months...and after 3 or so days w/o it, I experienced the most horrible "discontinuation" syndrome you could imagine...Now, dont get me wrong, Klonopin works wonderfully, but, the "withdraw" is horrible...I thought I had the flu, but all of my joints hurt, I lost 10 lbs in a period of days, I experienced myclonic seizures, unevenly dialated pupils, extreme weakness....all of which disappeared about 30 min after taking 2mg of Klonopin. I am currently in the process of tapering down, I will NEVER use Klonopin again.
