> I've been taking Klonopin (Clonazepam) for nine years. I take less on a daily basis (1-2mg) than I did when I first started (3mg). If I really need it, I will take as much as 4-5mg on rare instances.

> Dont believe the bad hype about the benzo, or any benzo. That comes from ppl who digest the drugs for recreational use. For medicinal uses, it is just fine.I'm afraid it is not a question of "belief"
but very painful experience. Though I do
not recommend to anyone that they stop clonazepam
after taking it daily for more than 5 years,
if i were advising a loved one, i would do
everything in my power to prevent withdrawal
without a knowledgeable addiction specialist's
help.Taking it indefinitely seems just fine;
it's when you quite that the problems start.Squiggles
