In reply to withdrawl from Klonopin, posted by sheebies on August 25, 2003, at 8:54:49
I saw my psychiatrist yesterday for the first time since I have been off klonopin. I'm telling him my situation, and he totally de-bunks me. He says I am NOT feeling withdrawals at all, but rebound anxiety.
According to him, rebound anxiety is anxiety caused by not having the pill in your system that you're used to. This would sound like withdrawal, but it's a different thing according to him. He says the withdrawals only took 7-10 days, and since then I have been feeling rebound anxiety.
I told him that my symptoms all the way through have been consistent, and he told me that rebound anxiety could have the same exact symptoms as withdrawals.
Has anyone heard of rebound anxiety? Quite curious here...
