I took Xanax for years (stopped a decade ago).
It worked great but near the end I started to develop somewhat of a tolerance to it (it seemed to take more to do the same thing. However, the worst thing I remember is the god-awful terrible withdrawal (incredibly hard to get off of). That has kept me from trying Klonopin, even though I really would very much like to try Klonopin. Is Klonopin as terrible to quit as Xanax? Also, some say they become tolerant to Klonopin---is that a small % of users, in your opinion? Finally, I've read where some say it can actually cause depression---do you believe that (or is that just a small % perhaps)? Would love to hear your answers to those questions. I may very well try Klonopin down the road and just want to know some answers. It worked GREAT for my Aunt (who had VERY similar problems to me).
