Hey Joey:
Yes, it does get better. I was on 2.5 mg Klonopin for about 6 months, and then I spent about 3 months tapering down. If you were taking the Xanaz or Klonopin every 3 or 4 days or so, in my mind that was already the equivalent of a taper. However, no matter how slowly you taper, doing that last step from a small amount (whatever it is) to none is always painful. If you have made it 21 days so far, be encouraged - it took me about a month after completely stopping to start feeling normal again. Hang in there!
