"i&#039;ve been on klonopin for over a decade. it helped with the anxiety for a really short time but i still had to self manage which is why i rate it 1 star. the only reason i was on it for so long was because the doctor told me i would be a lifer on it. i&#039;m finally off of this medication and i am suffering severe withdrawal. i have had insomnia for 8 mths off of it. i think it&#039;s best to manage sleep or anxiety issues on your own because being on this stuff is not worth it. klonopin made it difficult to get up in the mornings, i felt irritable and groggy for years. my anxiety on it would skyrocket. i also had a difficult time remembering things, studying, and learning new information. i don&#039;t recommend this drug at all."
