In reply to Klonopin, any info or experience good bad?, posted by searching4ans on June 19, 2004, at 14:31:25
For my Generalized and Social Anxiety plus Agoraphobia, Klonopin was a great drug. I remained at a low dose and weaned off without problems. Low SE profile for me. When weaning was started, I did think it was causing some depressive symptoms and some short term memory problems. They were fairly mild. The key to good treatment with any benzo, IMO, is a supportive Dr. and good careful followup, in particular, if you plan to use a benzo alone for treatment, as I did. Klonopin is a long half life benzo which means dosing can be less frequent. Klonopin did not make me feel "great", in an inapproiate and abuse potiential way, but did work on my anxiety so that I could get my life back. I would not nix using it again if my situation merited such.
