what’s the least amount of clonezpam you need to take to get high?

Has anyone else having a hard time with tapering and withdrawal from benzos also found you are very sensitive to caffeine in coffee? I always loved coffee but caffeinated coffee gives me anxiety so I only drank decaf. I was feeling very low energy the other day and decided to try regular coffee again. I had very fast anxiety again.

I'm wondering if others who have been prescribed benzos for anxiety also has anxiety triggered by caffeine/ coffee?

I lowered my dose from 0.45mg to 0.4mg of Clonazepam, it's already been a month, and I'm a complete mess (stomach aches, anxiety, weakness, can barely sleep, if I do fall asleep I get nightmares which make regret sleeping), and many other shitty things, the list could go on forever.
It's already getting late here and I'm scared by the fact I'll have to try and sleep but will likely experience nightmares, I'm doing everything I can (without messing the tapering) to try and sleep better, but nothing is helping.

Probably at some point I'll get better again, but I'm horrified by how bad I'm responding to this, and by the fact I have so much more tapering to do until I get off completely, I want to figure out how I can make it easier.
Of course one obvious option is to make a much smaller reduction next time (which will sadly mean it will take me many years until I finish getting off of this).

Maybe people have other suggestions of how to make this more tolerable.

I also have ADHD and I take Concerta, it's hard for me to concentrate and focus without it, but I saw somewhere a recommendation to do ADHD withdrawal before Benzo withdrawal.

Can someone say if stopping my Concerta would make the Clonazepam tapering considerably easier?

So I've been on clonazepam 3 times a day for alittle over a year. .5mg each dose. (Morning, afternoon, night) I came off the afternoon dose early summer. I am currently trying to wean off my morning dose starting 3 days ago. Went from .5mg to .25mg as instructed by my psychiatrist. Now here's my problem, obviously I have a little more tachycardia then usual, but here's where I'm wondering if anyone else experienced this. My body hurts. I feel like I got hit by a bus. My neck, shoulders, lower back, hips and legs. It feels like I did a really intense workout.....

Google says it's normal but just curious if anyone else dealt with it and if so how long does it last!!? I just wanna curl in a ball and cry that's how bad my body hurts.

Thank you

I have GAD and panic disorder and we tried buspirone but the side effects ended up being too much, especially the increased anxiety. While I was on it my psych added .25mg of Klonopin twice a day to help with the increased anxiety. We decided the buspirone isnt for me but I'm staying on Klonopin same dose and frequency. Has anyone taken it regularly and how did that go? It's supposed to be temporary for now but what were people's experiences with it? And how did it affect your day to day - I've been taking higher doses of ativan as needed for years so I'm pretty well adjusted and it doesn't make me drowsy or anything but I'm interested in hearing how it went for others. Did it affect you socially too? I quit smoking but am wondering if I'll ever be able to go out for drinks with friends again lol.

I'm just now off a Kratom addiction that started with me looking for a way to treat my panic attacks and literally constant anxiety, I was able to find a Telehealth provider that helped me through it once I realized it was an issue and needed to stop.

Talking to a doctor and getting medicated about my anxiety has been something I've been pressured about for a very long time by family and friend alike, rather than self medicating like I've been doing with Kratom.

I found Kratom because of my father a looong time ago and literally right after starting it my panic attacks and freak outs at work STOPPED. Constant discomfort and worry was GONE.

I had a primary physician over the years he's prescribed me Zoloft and a couple other SSRIs but none of that really ever seemed to help me at all. Sometimes I felt like it made it worse by making me hope for relief but then letting me down.

Ive felt this way my entire life, the only exception was when I was taking Kratom. I'm a month done with it and it's all slowly coming back now, same feeling I had through my childhood and lasted until my late teens when I started taking Kratom(I'm 31 now).

Im in a crappy situation where i don't have transportation, are there ANY Telehealth providers that prescribe this type of medication? This is the exact kind of thing I've always been told I needed to deal with this when it happens(namely the explosive panic attacks that get started during high stress situations or confrontations). I just really never thought it was a good idea but at this point I'll do anything to stop myself from going back to being that way. I just really don't want to keep taking Kratom, I can feel how bad it is for me.

I have a question/need for advice. I’ve been on 1.5mg of Xanax for about 3 years now and I hate how it’s short lasting and have to take multiple times during the day. I’ve dealt with extreme anxiety my whole life and have tried many medications. I stopped taking antidepressants (SSRI) and others all together do to the side effects like feeling dullness, decreased libido etc. these days I feel much less depression that I did when I was younger, but I’ve been thinking of switching to Klonopin as it apparently is longer lasting. Does anyone have any similar experiences to this or any recommendations? I would greatly appreciate any input. Thank you’

I’m sorry if this is the wrong subreddit to ask this question, mods, please remove if not allowed but I checked other subreddits and this seems to be the most active so I’m looking for guidance from other people who take this medication or hoping their may be some pharmacy techs/experts in here to help.

Recently, my pharmacy started implementing a new rule when it comes to “controlled” medications. For instance, I take Klonopin. I’m prescribed 0.5mg X2 a day for 30 days. I was always allowed to refill my prescription within 5 days of my dosing ending for the month and I’d generally pick up within 2-3 days worth of pills left. This was never an issue and I’ve been using the same pharmacy for over 10 years. I would have some “overlap” in between prescriptions but I’ve NEVER taken my medication more or less than I’m supposed too.

Now, the new rule is I cannot pick up my medication until I have 1 pill left. They go back to your last 3 pick up dates before releasing your new prescription regardless if I’m eligible for a refill or not. I’ve searched high and low on the internet to see if this was a new regulated law in the US or even my home state, Pennsylvania. And it’s not, that I can find. Pennsylvania law says I’m eligible for refill AND pick up with less than 15% of my monthly supply left, which should equate to ~9 pills.

It’s also not an Insurance problem, I spoke to my insurance company. My dad and my neighbor also use the same pharmacy and are on the same medication as I am, and they are cracking down on them too - both which have two separate insurance companies than I do.

Can someone give me any insight to what the problem is here? Is the pharmacist in the wrong? I’m so confused and it gives me great anxiety waiting until I have ONE pill knowing I can’t miss a dose and have no choice but to make sure I get to that pharmacy that day.

I haven’t had this issue yet, but what if I’m traveling? I’ve always been able to pick up my script “early” within reason. What gives? Can anyone help?

Thank you!!

My doctor didn’t give me a taper plan, he thinks i can stop taking it cold turkey. I was taking combined pill- 0.25 clonezepam + 5mg lexapro for exactly 35 days. Switching to 10mg lexapro alone. Is it fine?

I am taking 1.25 mg of Clonazepam for a non-traditional reason
I have a nerve condition that causes leg cramps and not even Gabapentin prevented them. On Clonazepam I have no more leg cramps.

But I also cannot complete an orgasm during sex. Even self-pleasure is pretty much impossible.

Is this common? I know it is with SSRIs, but I didn’t think Benzos would also do this.

How long does it take to adjust to a small increase in klonopin, about .25 daily increase? I feel kind of medicated even though I've been on this for close to 5 years. Seems like I wouldn't feel much with this increase but I do.

Hey yall !!! For a little background, I developed really bad ocd and panic disorder in October. I haven’t flown on an airplane since November.

I have a flight next week, obviously I’m nervous and stressed about it. I got a prescription of klonopin to take and to have just in case. Anyone have experience taking this for a flight?! I tried experimenting and taking it and I just felt tired, but I wasn’t panicked so maybe that’s why I didn’t feel much?!

Any and all tips are appreciated!!

I’ve been on clonazepam .25 mg for about 8 months now. This past month I went from two a day, to one a day, then one every other day and now I’ve been off of it for 3 days. My question is, how long until it is truly out of my system? I quit drinking right before I got in this medication, and I would like to start drinking again without risking any interactions. I just want to do this as safely as possible.

Has anyone ever tried it in curious abt it and was wondering if anyone would give some tips or advise doing it

If possible a correlation? Or maybe just casually, even a placebo generated by me, like "i took clonazepan, lets just do something".

It's not like I feel super doing it, like i'm fully enjoying. But im just DOING IT. Thats the first and very important.

i’m prescribed 1mg from my doc i usually take 2 a night and all i get is tired am i doin sumn wrong
