I'm taking about .75mg of Klonopin (6 days now) and 45mg of Nardil (a few weeks).
I can't remember anything! Everytime I start talking to a friend they are like, "you've already told me this twice today." I have just about no recollection of previous conversations. I can forget I just saw someone a few minutes after I saw them. Is there any remedy for this? I had a bad memory due to chronic stress/anxiety before taking klonopin, but it wasn't as severe.
Also the klonopin slows down my motor skills (I walk slow, slur my speech, not alert) and my eyes only open half way. I can't drink Caffeine because it raises my blood pressure. I'm unable to focus on words when I'm reading a book, which is causing alot of problem in my classes (I'm a college student). It's like my eyes bounce around the page. I've had to postpone 3 tests since I feel like I have a learning disability now. Sometimes I get double vision.
I also get mild brain shocks (especially when I close my eyes) like you get from withdrawal. (I remember that feeling when I tapered off Paxil and Effexor)
Are these temporary side effects?
