Positive experiences
“Once in a month, I happen to take clonazepam for sleep when I need to get back on my schedule. The next day I feel very good. Without social anxiety, confident.”
“Clonazepam PRN for anxiety (this works well for social and general anxiety, but I’m concerned about long term side effects)”
“Clonazepam would calm me down, however I disliked the idea of becoming dependent on benzos. Eventually I discovered that just having clonazepam nearby or in my hand during an attack would be enough to keep the attack from escalating”
“When I take clonazepam, I feel actually feel like a human being... my motivation coming back, my depression lifting and my energy levels returning to normal”
“i took 1/6 of a 1 mg klonopin pill, and it worked. i fall back to sleep at 3am and slept until 8 am”
“occasionally trazadone or Klonopin if I have to sleep and I am too stimmed up”
Negative and mixed experiences
“I’m now down to .5mg a day. I was taking 2mg a Day of Klonopin before... The only reason I haven’t come completely off the klonopin is I can’t sleep without it.”
“I also use a low dose of klonopin but I hope to get rid of it... main reason I keep using it is to counter the anxiety I get from ritalin.”
“I had my first and only panic attack that week... I never had a panic attack until they gave me anti-anxiety medicine!”
“Whatever you do, avoid benzos at all costs. I can tell you from experience that the longer you're on them, the worse off you'll be in the long run.”
“multiple others etc for sleep but none worked and again just made me stay up longer.”
“In the past my doc had me on low dose clonazepam that worked great but cant get no more w my current situation.”
