Hi Everyone!

 

I've been on Klonopin for over 20 years.  I'm on 2 mg first thing in the morning and I've actually tapered to 1 mg in the morning,  over the last year.  I want to get off of it forever.

Thank-you! 5-10% every two week is interesting and I'll review the Ashton.  I need to find the conversion.

Great decision OB!

 

You will find that your life is way better without benzos; more clarity, less moody, better health, better memory. And as you get older the potential problems from benzos will not be impacting your life.

 

So many people here have been where you are, we can help, Just do it!
