User Reviews for Clonazepam (Klonopin)

I take the drug in connection with anxiety and mood disorder. I believe that it helps calm me down. As a teacher, I can tell when I haven't taken the medication because my hands will start shaking during my teaching. I do have a problem with taking it and driving though because even 0.5mg tablets make me very tired. I am glad that it relaxes me but I wish that it not make me so tired.

My question to people is if i should try buying a klonopin prescription on line from one of thos e pharmacies that say they are from canada or something. They seem to be cheaper. Does anyone have any stories?

I have been through many medications in order to try and control my panic attacks, as I develop very high tolerances even on mendications you aren't supposed to, and finally we have settled on Klonopins. They seem to work like a charm so far.

I was on Klonopin for almost 2 years 1mg at night... This in combination with zoloft completely relieved my anxiety. It has been about 2 weeks since I stopped taking it and the withdrawl symptoms were bad while cutting down each time but after a week of withdrawl the brain seems to adjust.

As a veteran of the gulf war, I experienced panic attacks, and general anxiety. This drug effectively maintains normalcy in my life. Without it, I'm lost. Also a great cure for the common hangover as it produces a calming effect. Cheers!

If you Lost Or your Xanax were taken, Can this drug help like or cflose to Xanax?

Sometimes when I take Klonopin it makes me tired and sleepy, it takes away my ambition to do things, I seem to be putting things off longer than I did before I took it, but over all it does work for me, panic attacks doesn't happen as often. I wouldn't take this unless my doctor thought it helps me.

I have been taking klonopin for about a year now. Started on 1mg a day. Now up to 2mg. Calms me down in a short time. Satisfied overall.

This drug when used correctly can be life giving. I was always having attacks, at school, work, in the car, at home. By using the medication, combined with anti-deppresants, I feel normal again and anxiety free.

I have been taking 1mg daily for 4 years now for panic attacks. It has been the only drug (out of all the others they tried first) to allow me to leave my home without worries of having a panic attack!!!!

It has made feel very relaxed and very confident, not up-up-tight and taken away every scary feelings that the world is out to get me. My confidence has rose and i don't need to look over my shoulder every other second. I no longer burst into tears at the least smallest question and i'm no longer in fear of every one or anything that happpens to me. I feel that I'm a person in my owmn right. For me {and I'm not saying everyone should use this med}it works.

I have been on this drug for about 2 years for Cyclothalmic disorder (mild bipolar). It has been good, and I am a pretty even-keeled person now. I was originally taking it 3 times a day, but sleepiness during the day was bothersome so I now use it mainly at night. Over time, it seems that I actually have needed less and less of it - I don't even take it every night now and I don't feel any withdrawl type symptoms if I don't take it for a few days, but I wouldn't want to be completely without it. It works wonders when anxiety symptoms pop up unexpectedly and thankfully my anxiety tends to come at night anyway - so it has been a good drug for me. No other side effects except sleepiness.Read More Read Less

I have taken Klonopin since I was 15 and I am now 22 and I'm completely satisfied with it. I have had to get the dose increased over the years, I stared out at .5mg three times a day to now 2mg three times a day and it helps my anxiety a lot.

just depression and axniety

After multiple concussions i had severe vertigo an anxiety all the time an panic attacks.After trying many antidepressents like zoloft cymbalta paxil they all made me feel horriblly dizzy an nautious an like i was going crazy.Than i was prescribed klonipin .5 2x a day an 1mg at bed.It has been the only thing that has worked for me an im significantly better than when i started taking the drug.Has helped lessen the severe vertigo and anxiety ive had for so many years.

Diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, trying so many types of medications, and finally being placed on this one for night time muscle spasms & RLS along with sleepless nights, this medications has taken away all of the above issues. Of course I am on other meds, Cymbalta, Vicodin(Norco), Lyrica & now Klonopin. With this combination of meds, I finally have found a level of relief that has allowed me to function normally. Although at first the Klonopin for the first few days did cause morning fog, but didn't last long. I stayed groggy about 30 mins after waking, but I just took it slow. Another thing I do is NEVER take this during the daytime, unless I have no plans on going out. This will make you drowsy & a little clumsy until after you get used to it. I have been prescribed 3 times daily, but I feel even at the lowest dose of .5 mg that is too much. So I stick with taking it at bedtime. It helps me get the sleep I need in order to get a more restful sleep.Read More Read Less
