I wouldn't advise anyone to go off "cold turkey"
from any med! Your body and brain doesn't like
going through this, and you have to be careful!I was on an anti-depressant, and Klonopin for
ten years, and was "taken off" by... a doctor!
I was out of it for about 2 weeks. I can't tell
you what I went through! That seemed to add to
my downfall! It's been over 2 years (with another
doctor), and I haven't been able to get back
since!I have been on what seems like everything. Now,
10 mgs. of Lex, and .25 of Klonopin. Still don't
feel "right".What ever is happening is normal under the
circumstances, but I would definately get in touch
with your doctor as soon as you can! You are
probably almost through the worst, but you might
be starting to have "symptoms" too- instead of
just side effects.What is your diagnosis anyway? This could also
make a big difference.
