What is happening?

[[Di...]]

6mgs Klonopin (1mg X 6 tabs daily)

5-6 years

Began tapering March 14, 2017

Currently at .5mg

 

Overall: This is not fun. I would describe more but filling in a short introduction is seemingly impossible. Lets see...quick status...blah nah. Its turrrrible. But a positive a healthy outlook seem to be beneficial.

 

How long should I expect this to continue?

Hi DiamondSS19 Welcome to Benzobuddies

 

It looks like you have gone from 6 mgs to 0.5 in 2 weeks?  if that's right then it’s way too fast.  Tapering slow can help to minimize withdrawal effects.  It is generally recommended to taper no more than 5-10% every 10-14 days.  This is a guideline and it is ok to adjust this schedule for your own comfort.

 

We have a great community here of knowledgeable and friendly people who understand this process.  They will be willing to share their experience with you.  Feel free to ask questions so that members can respond

 

I would suggest that you familiarise yourself with the Ashton Manual , it is an excellent resource for information about these medications and gives a lot of information about withdrawal/tapering. 

 

Here are some helpful links:

If you would be so kind as to add a signature (history of meds/doses etc) it will help members give you relevant advice this link will show you how to”Create a signature”
