Thanks Rianna,

Not feeling so good right now, as i'm unsure how long i'm supposed to wait before i take my medication. If i wait long enough, it will make me feel better. If i don't wait long enough, it can make me feel worse. At least as i understand things.

I wish i understood things better. :(

Hey, if it's any consolation i've been reading about benzo dependence as well. I can't find the link ATM, but i know i read something very encouraging about ditching the stuff after the last bit of tapering.

Here's a FAQ i found:
http://www.benzo.org.uk/FAQ1.1.htm
... looks like lotsa good info.

Also, although i only did it once, i *did* taper myself organically, simply owing to living a healthy lifestyle. I was down to .25mg clonazepam, from a high of 2mg. I hardly noticed the taper, and if i'd had any sense i probably should have stopped entirely because i probably wouldn't have noticed that either.

I'm saying it can be done, so don't give up. Of course this is just my experience, but from that experience i think the best angle at it is to get healthy and happy, so you don't need the drug so much.

That's my plan, anyway. :)
