In reply to apathy with clonazepam?, posted by peddidle on October 4, 2007, at 13:23:44
Sounds to me that you're not necessarily in great need of a benzo. When I began using a benzo there was no doubt in my mind that I required it, or at least something, on a daily basis as my anxiety was that debilitating. If you functioned rather well for a week by taking it only two or three times while stating that you might suspect it is interfering with your ability to function, I'd suggest not taking it on a regular basis if at all.
Remember, some anxiety is necessary to engage us in activity, and certainly when using clonazepam on a regular basis it basically dampens most anxiety so there is bound to be a marked reduction in motivation and hence an increased apathetic feeling.
