klonopin withdrawal? - Panic Disorders Message Board

I was taking .5mg Klonopin daily for 3 months
I tapered off it for a month
But since I took last dose last week I feel very jittery and anxious
Anyone have a similar experience with Klonopin?
How long does the withdrawal last?

I took Klonopin for a few months and never tapered off it.As far as I can remember I never had problems with withdrawal.Do you reckon your just feeling jittery and Anxious from some other factor?Remember though everyone responds differently to meds so it might be or might not be withdrawal..Talk to your doctor..

I just posted you but I put it in the "Klonopin" post by mistake. If you're interested, that's where it is!

.5 a day is a very tiny dose, I was taking up to 15mgs of Xanax a day and was just detoxed with Klonopin over 6 days it has a much longer half life (stays in your body) then xanax thats why xanax causes convulsions, Im fine there are many othe drugs out there that are not benzodazapines like buspar and seroquin they give for panic and aniexty, Im fine by the way and I know you will be too. GOD bless you
