Insomnia
"I&#039;ve been using Klonopin for about 4 years. I take it when I awake in the middle of the night and can&#039;t get back to sleep.  0.5 mg gives me about 3 hours sleep and much more if I&#039;ve not been taking it for a few days. Recently, I&#039;ve been weaning myself by reducing the dosage to 0.25 mg.  This weaning would be more difficult if I weren&#039;t retired so that I can get more sleep just by staying in bed longer.  Not sleeping is much more adverse to my health than taking a moderate dose of Klonopin."
