> Mr. Scott: I took oxazepam (30mg once per day) to help me get off klonopin. It was not prescribed to me. It helped, but it was still hell.

I had just started feeling well, and I wanted to wait a bit before I quit klonopin. But then I figured, I want to get off them eventually, so why not now? I now have oxazepam prescribed to me. I don't see any difference between this and klonopin.

>Hi Ryan,
You are one of the people that should give up Benzos (Obviously! :)) AD's help with my soical anxieties, have you tried any? Use Valium to get off Oxazepam, Dr. Bob has equivalency tables in the tips section.
