Dependency is likely to develop with Klonopin -- no question. But if it improves your life and there are no substantial side effects, why not use it? Yes, there are effects on the PNS (and CNS) but that's the whole point. If it didn't affect your nervous system then there would be no reason to take it.
If you can control anxiety problems with behavioral modification, that's great. But many people simply cannot do this. Some people can control their cholesterol levels with changes in diet and exercise; others can't and need medication. It's really not much different.
