> I hate my Klonopin. I only take it because my pdoc told me too. I save it now for the worse times when I just need to sleep and get away from all the hell this depression causes. If I take it, whether in the afternoon when my depression and anxiety is real bad or at night, I wake up feeling more depressed, groggy and crabby. Does anyone else have this reaction?
I found that when I first took it and then
again when the dose was raised, I felt some
depression. But I got used to that after
a week or so. I think all benzos are likely
to do that, since they are sedatives. If you
feel depressed for longer, maybe you are taking
too high a dose.Once again, I am surprised that some drs.
give this drug "as needed" and others prescribe
it every day. Is it a question of inconsistency
or deliberate therapeutic know-how;Squiggles
