Does anyone take clonazapam daily

Recommended Posts

Even though i'm taking Celexa, I still have high anxiety and take two clonazepam daily. Does anyone else use this medicine daily and does it help. I feel so alone.

I had to start using it regularly right now because of high anxiety. I really want to avoid it too makes me drowsy but only way for now I can calm my thoughts. 

Before I rarely used it. So your not alone

It's good to know I'm not alone and thank you all for responding . Rainbow- how much is needed to calm u? I take a total of 2mg. Not looking forward to the time when I have to week off of it, but one step at a time !

I'm about to take some this evening as well but have always been afraid to take it too much even though I take low dose. It started not working as well about four months ago as I was driving a small distance back home and I still had a major attack. It use to wipe out anxiety for a while but now its NOT too much.

Hi E

I take .5mg at night to help me sleep. Trying not to use it during the day as it makes me drowsy.

I take clonazepam when I have to. I'm so worried about it eventually not working or becoming dependent on it. Sometimes I end up taking it a few days in a row when things are really bad, but I try not to. I have nothing against people who use medication -- it just sometimes makes ME more anxious (I have a hard time even taking advil).

Well, it's been several months of trying different medications, and i'm still on 2MG of clonazapam, along with Lexepro. My anxiety and panic disorder is up and down. I'm scared i'll never get off the clonazapam. I tried to take a little less last night and night before, however it made me anxious even thinking about it! Has anyone successfully got off this stuff. Do i need to wait until i feel perfect before coming off?
