Posted by Desi on July 04, 1999 at 00:50:07:All benzos whether prescribed for anxiety, sleep,
panic, or as a muscle relaxant should only be taken in my opinion for no more than two weeks. Beware! Take these things chronically for years and you you will pay one hell of a price as I am doing right now. Not only will the med. not work like it does in the beginning, it will ironically due to tolerance cause a worsening of whatever condition you started taking it for initally. I have heard it said that is easier to kick a heroin or cocaine habit than it these damn benzos and I believe it although I have never tried these illegal substances. Please listen!
Learn from someone else's experience. If you are unfortunate to learn the hard way as I have done,
You will pay a horrible price. I have taken klonopin for nearly 4 years for PD & GAD. Prior to that, I took xanax for 8 years. Now I want to get off the prescribed drug bandwagon and I can't. Even
with a gradual prudent taper, the psychic pain is horrendous and so are the somatic manifestations
of that pain. It is like been tortured to death but you never die.
