Here I am suggesting the theraputic downside of
taking TOO MUCH Klonopin, and I inadvertently end
up suggesting just the opposite!! I did NOT mean
to say "1.5 - 2.0 mg TID", I meant 1.5-2.0 DAILY.
For me this is usually .75 mg Klonopin (+ 2.5 mg
Pindolol) upon waking, then .5 mg about three
hours later, and then .25 mg. about four hours
after that. I've been taking the other 2.5 mg of
Pindolol at night. I'll sometimes fiddle with the
timing, but not the daily total, when big
challenges are coming up (e.g., a presentation).ORIGINAL F'D-UP STATEMENT:
>I actually showed significant improvement on
already-decent results when I LOWERED the amount
of Klonopin I take by about 1 mg (to 1.5-2.0 tid
in descending amounts), even though it remains the
key med in the mix.
