> Hi, i was just wondering what dose of klonopin are you taking. Because I have similar symptoms as you and I take 1 1/2 to 2 mg daily depending. Are you taking a higher dose??
~~~I titrate my dose varying with situational circumstances and sometimes, just my "state" that has no appreciated reason but a flaming amygdala. I'm actually on a lower dose, for the majority of the time, than you. But, I think your dose is very reasonable. During my initial first year of use, I required a higher dose, usually around 1 mg per day, divided. As time went on, I was able to lower. There are still are times I require a higher dose, but I'm able to return to my normal dosing without problem -- which is .25mgs per day divided. It's very low, but I do well on that and not as well when I'm not taking the K "dust".I am ubersensitive with just about all meds, so I'm not surprised that a subtherapeudic dose works for me. I also don't like when individuals are "pigeonholed" into a mindset of an "everyone" dose --- barring tolerance or problematic matters or a dose amount being dangerous in some way, I'm for individuality and "wiggle room" - lowish to highish.
I'm sure that's more than you wanted to know. (smile)
