About Me: Male, Washington - DC, member since Apr 2008
I really want to remain pretty anonymous on this site.  I do not like admitting that I have an anxiety disorder. But I have been anxious since I was a teenager, and surreptiously went to doctors as a kid because I knew something was not right. Everyone thinks I am calm, ... [More] cool and collected.

I weaned myself of of Prozac about 8 months ago, and completed a Klonopin taper July 30/08 I am having bizarre symptoms since I completed. Here to get some solid feedback. [Less]

This taper off of Klonopin has not been as bad as anticipated. I am down to .125 mg of Klonopin. I am to the point where I take the .5 mg and quarter it. Up until this poi...[more]

I am so much better on this lowered dose - soon, I'll be off completely....I do have blood sugar issues, and 3:00 used to be a tough time for me, too... I'm on Day 22 and just started to drop 1 dose down these past 2 days - I'm supposed to skip around each day and alternate which dose to drop - yesterday it was the evening dose - the day before, it was the morning dose.... Not sure how long to do this, so we'll see... I'm on vacation, so I'm not on line much right now, but I do wish you the very best!!!

Sorry to hear about your cat. Losing him must have been devastating. We have three cats; the oldest is 23 yrs old. His name is Pond Scum - yes, you read it right. We call him The Old Man but when he hears the fridge door open or sees his cat treats, he runs faster than the two younger ones. He's always been there - he's a real comfort. Cats and dogs usually are. If you ever get another cat, you'll know when it's time. Somethings can't be rushed. Glad to hear the taper is going well and that it's been easy. Most people really struggle. Xanweaner used to keep a journal and every day she'd post something about her progress. She's a real inspiration. TTYL wolf

Well, if you want to remain anonymous out here, I just blew your cover = ) Only wanted to say I love the picture of your cat. He/she looks like one of mine - Icepick. Cats (and dogs) are great therapy and no human can hide anything from them. When I feel bad, Icepick brings me one of his treasures - a dead mouse - freaks me out but he thinks he's being a nice guy. Good thoughts to you and your slow tapering off meds ....
