I have been on 1mg of Klonopin twice a day for a year and a half. I had no choice to take this drug because I was suicidal and I have reactions to EVERYTHING under the sun! I am weaning 0.25 milligrams at a time and it is difficult, but I am strong and I am telling myself that EVERYDAY. I have been at it for 10 days so far and day 5-7 was the worst! I am staying on this dose for another two weeks before I begin to taper anymore, so that my body can adjust. This is from the advice of a very smart psychiatrist who I trust, which is VERY hard to find! I also looked online and it is suggested to come down very very slow and it says it takes the body 1-3 weeks to adjust to the lower dose so I am going with the 3 weeks just to be on the safe side! You have to believe that you can do it!!! I also do yoga which helps, gentle relaxing yoga. There are herbs you can also take to help with withdrawal, but I suggest consulting with someone who has experience and knows what they are doing. I have not looked into this option yet because my symptoms are managable. I think if you are ready and you do it the right way and believe in yourself you can do it! You have to be strong. Also there are acupuncture treatments that can help with this! I hope this helps!
