SpartanForce Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Sup. I have being taking clonazepam for about 8 months now, on dosages 0,5mg twice a day and more if needed. Recently I decide it to quit this medication. It's been a week since I'm only taking 0,2mg twice a day, and now I want to just take 0,2mg at the evening until I can quit forever. I have being feeling very anxious, but I guess that will pass with time? Or I'm tapering off too quickly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluechick Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 (edited) You're tapering off too quickly. I made the mistake of guessing on my own taper schedule and I suffered for it. Good luck, Spartan. I wish you a speedy withdrawal. Edited February 19, 2013 by thesystemisdown Removing a link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melissaw72 Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 When I weaned down on Klonopin it took a very long time. I went from about 3 mg/day to 0.5 mg/day but it took about 4-5 months at least. Also, maybe you are anxious because your body needs the klonopin to help to not be anxious, and weaning down isn't helping. Just something to think about.

sonicwhite Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 (edited) When you just get sick of the medication and you just make up your mind and don't focus on the withdrawals. It makes it alot easier but, I have been on it for 4 yr;s and I just got sick of it.. But this is just me opinion and deliverance from the drug...I hated the way it was making me feel...And in a weird way the ritalin takes my anxiety away...
