I would say there is something else going on. The answer to Klonopin w/d is of course restarting it. And it appears you have doubled your original dose. I would try and take 25mg of benedryl and see if this helps your symptoms. I've certainly heard of benzo withdrawal and have personally experienced it, but the fix is just to restart the med. Going up should only cause increased sedation and more relaxation. Check your bottle, make sure the pharmacy didn't give you something else. I've seen that happen before. Other than that, I can't think of anything else that could be causing this. I tried Lyrica and got terribly dizzy and headaches and anxiety and had to discontinue.
