Has anyone tried Klonopin for Social Anxiety? What dosage worked for you and what's the best time to take it?
I am thinking of taking it long term (daily) with some days off every couple of weeks.
Any ideas?Hugs,
Christine

I've taken 1 mg for over a year and it helped incredibly. I dated a gal and my anxiety around peeps at work became manageble. The down side is you do become dependent and for me anyway I get a bit complacent on it like isolating bc I'm lazy . So maybe it works too good , I dunno. Personally, I think at this point I need a large cruel man with an electric cattle prod to hit me with 50,000 volts a few times day. A sort of behavioral therapy for the really stupid. If anyone wants a hundred bucks to beat the bag out of me let me know :)

you know, you're bringing a strange, bad, and potentially dangerous mood to this board. if someone were to sniff packets looking for your (very) traceable real IP address, you'd be barking up the wrong tree, my angry friend. if that person was very well-schooled in tracking ``anonymous'' violent threats, you'd be a in a worse place than you are now. do yourself and the rest of the posters here a courtesy and hinder your negative and threatening thoughts. chemist
