I always tell everyone, if they are going to have to takes a benzo, to take Klonopin because it really is a wonderful medicine when taken right.
Yes it can cause Depression unfortunately "all benzos can, but Klonopin is higher"
Because it lowers the serotonin, thats why usually people prescribed Kpin, are given a good SSRI or SNRI, or something that induces serotonin to replenish to effect.
