I wanted to start this post,because in a certain thread,someone said that clonazepam,also known as kolonapin,is NOT addicting! And I just don't want anyone to get mis-lead that it isn't!,It IS VERY MUCH SO ADDICTING!! To the person who said in that certain thread that its not,I'm not in anyway putting you down,or trying to start any trouble,But I'm very interested to know were you recieved that false information from? I know about pharma. drugs.I went to school for 4 years to be a pharmacist,which I didn't complete due to back injury,I worked in a rehab for years,So I have some knowledge about perscription drugs.

Not only is it very addicting but its also horrible to withdraw from...seizures are common when withdrawing.

Hi everyone I am so so so sorry I thought kolonopin was a muscle relaxer that I have taken in the past, which I know is not addicting. I will check the name on that tonight and let you know. I would never willfully give out bad info, again, mea culpa I apologize. TJ

Hi TjinPA ! I didn't think at all you would do that. I just wanted to get that ifo out there[that it is addicting] .
People would be surprised of the medications out there that are addicting.Many people think[ not anyone in particular] that if a medication is not a controlled substance,that its not addicting. A perfect example would be the painkiller tramadol[also known as Ultram] Which is synthetic.Theres a few people on this site that were,or are addicted to tramadol.
TjinPa, thanks for stepping up and replying.Many people would of took my post,or reply as attacking them,and thank you for recognizing that I wasn't insinuating that at all.

Theres a big difference between addiction,and dependancy. Everyone [I'm talking about ligit patients] who takes narcotic pain med.,including myself,is dependent on them.I take my med,as perscribed,but I depend on them every day for relief[pain] addiction,[I know yous already know this] the way I like to put it,for example,addiction to heroin,people who are, got to the point were they have to have the drug,to function,or not to be sick,then you have tolerance,were for example,in my case,I started out taking 20 mg of oxycontin 4 yrs ago,today,I take 80mg,to get the same effect[relief] as I was getting from the 20mg. Travlerflorida,This is a very good topic you brought up,because many people get tolerance,addiction,and dependency,mixed up.
