I loved this drug.... 01/20/08
Reviewed by:
Dallas, Texas, USA
It helped with so many of my symptoms, and unfortunately, my doctor said it was addictive and only used it one week to help me. I wish I could have it daily. I slept better, my stress stopped, and I just felt better overall!

Klonopin and anxiety 06/18/07
Reviewed by:
California, USA
Klonopin works GREAT for my high level of anxiety. I have experienced 2 anxiety attacks in two years, WHILE on Klonopin, but in general, I feel VERY free of anxiety. There is a terrible withdrawl that comes with it, so do NOT attempt to discontinue use without the help of a doctor!

Helps me fall asleep 12/29/06
Reviewed by:
Location Not Given
Klonipin helps me to fall asleep, but after a time it didn't work as well so my Dr. went up on dosage and it helped. It seems as though the longer I take it the higher the dosage I need.
However it does help me fall asleep by making me feel relaxed... it does not last all night and I still wake up so I still have trouble getting a good nights sleep.

best sleep medication 05/13/06
Reviewed by:
Location Not Given
For me, this is the best sleeping medication around, I have absolute panic attacks in bed at night, worrying if I will fall asleep or be able to stay asleep. This is the first medication to really help me get over these. I am so grateful that it exists.
