The first time I took Klonopin, I took 0.5 mg and waited to see what would happen, since I'm sometimes sensitive to meds. I sat out on the porch and after about an hour, felt no sedative effects or anything, really, so I thought, "what was I worried about?". So I started reading a magazine. I woke up two hours later with a neighbor cat sleeping in my lap. :>} My pdoc started me at 1.5 mg/day, but I couldn't stand that high a dose-although I tried it for about 6 weeks. I never got over the snoozies and feeling tired and depressed. I hope you feel much better! Sounds like increasing the dose would improve the quality of your life. I personally had no difficulty whatever withdrawing from Klonopin, if you're concerned about that.
