> I am going through the same thing. I've been on l.5mg for about 6 months. AD's didn't work on my depression so I weaned off them. Depression still there. I used to suffer from extreme panic attacks and GAD. I was on first Valium 5mg, 3 times a day, Ativan, back to Valium, then Xanax, which worked until last spring when it just caused me to feel tired. I have a new pdoc, which is not good, because he will only use Klonopin. I'm thinking of cutting back to lmg to see if it makes a difference. The problem is inside I feel like I could scream because I have so many phobias and fears. I don't know what the answer is. Phillipa
Phillip,
Thanks for your response. I cut back last night to 1.5 mg and still feel the depression, yet not as bad. I am going to put a call in to my pdoc and see what he suggests. I am just afraid that if I go any lower with the klonopin, I will have difficulty sleeping.
