Hi - I too, was on the same dose of Clonazepam. It was a nighmare getting off if and I felt exactly like you do. The biggest mistake I made was trying to taper too much and too quickly. You have to make very very small cuts at a very slow pace (maybe 2-3 weeks apart). You should probably be under a doctor's supervision. Please hang in there. You will get through it. Clonzaepam is a very additive drug and takes the brain a while to readjust to not having it but it does. Keep posting. Ellie
