Long-term clonazepam

Posted by Guy on April 12, 2004, at 19:02:26

I am trying to decide if I should ask my pdoc to let me try clonazepam alone for my (major)anxiety disorder. My worst problem is insomnia and sleep-related anxiety. I tried clonazepam in the past at 1 mg per day, but it stopped working for sleep after a few months. Now I'm wondering if I should have increased the dose to 3 or 4 mg. I have heard that dose is common for anxiety disorders and that many people remain on a stable dose for years and years. My fear is that it would just poop out again, leaving me stuck on the higher dose. I don't understand people who say benzos can't be used for sleep. What good is a med if it doesn't let you sleep?
