klon w/d effects

Posted by becksA on December 16, 2006, at 18:21:20

ive been on 900mg daily of lithium for a few weeks now, and it seems to be helping a bit, but hard to tell as we're tapering off the 14mg daily dosage of klonopin i've been on for so long. we think when all is said and done that may work better, and klonopin, although it worked, was not the best approach.
My questions are how long after each dosage increase does your mind level back out if that makes any sense. In other words, I may be more anxious obviously because it's less klonopin, but how do i know when the rebound anxiety and withdrawl effects are gone so I can assess how I truly feel at that dosing level?

Secondly can withdrawl of this drug cause depression?

Thanks
