> I would like to know why some people can taper off klonopin, high dose,after years of use,and have no issue with it? Then others,such as me,have such a problem trying to taper down from a small dose. What is it about my brain vs the brain that doesnt experience withdrawal?
Would you consider using Trileptal (oxcarbazepine), an anticonvulsant, to help you discontinue Klonopin? I have no experience with this strategy myself, but their are anecdotes of its effectiveness.

Several years ago, I suggested that anticonvulsants might be helpful when it occurred to me that there could be a kindling process involved in BZD and SSRI/SNRI withdrawal

To answer your question, I don't know.
