Anxiety
"I was on this medication for approximately 5 years.  The last couple of years, I had increasing anxiety and depression.  I never increased my initial dose of 2 mg. at night to help with sleep.  My PDoc continued to insist that it was not the Klonopin that was causing my anxiety and depression.  Who knows?  I weaned myself off of the medication SLOWWLY over 4 months.  It really took me that amount of time, even that may have been too fast for me.  When it works, it&#039;s a helpful me.  Problem is that many people tend to build a tolerance to the med and will likely need to increase the dose to get the same effect, hence feelings of withdrawal that can come on automatically.  I know everyone has his/her own opinion about this drug."
