My doc did'nt tell me klonopin was addictive either, I also had very bad panic attacks. I would'nt of cared if it was or not either. Anything to stop the panic and constant anxiety. I guess I got off klonopin and turned to alcohol. I'm almost ready to go to the store and get some beer, I'm feeling very anxious. Beer helps that!!! I know I have to quit though for my husband so we'll see. Thank you sooo much!!!

i would have never gotten off klonopin knowing the withdrawals and knowing i need them, becaue i never abused them..i took them as the doctor told me, but getting off was hell..Plus i got off of beer and that the same day..It was 13 days of hell, not from the beer but klonopin..i know the anxious feeling of wanting to get to the store and buy some beer also..try to take one day at a time..i almost died after a surgery which made me understand why they say live for today, not tommorrow, just say i won't drink today..
wish you the best
