I've been taking xanax for 17 years non-stop. I have severe panic attacks. I've been on almost every antidepressant and none of them stopped the panic attacks. I'm now taking controlled release xanax. I take one 2mg pill every day. It has been the greatest drug ever for my panic attacks. It gives me a consistent dose throughout the day. I haven't had a panic attack since I've been using the controlled release version.
Why do you want to quit Klonopin? Is your ailment cured? My best advice for quitting a benzo is to do it very slowly and be patient. At my worst I was taking 12 mg per day of regular xanax. I was on that dose for well over a year. I was always so tired. I told my doctor that I wanted to lower the dosage as much as possible. We started doing it 1/8 mg at a time. Slowly over a period of about 3 years I was able to get down to my current dose of 2 mg/day. However, by going that slowly, I did not suffer any type of withdrawal. Your doctor should be able to assist you greatly with this. I wish you luck!
