"please, please, please do your research before ever taking klonopin or any drug in the benzodiazepine family.  klonopin has caused me great hardship and nearly cost me my life.  and i am not alone - thousands of people have had horrific experiences with this drug.  please search &quot;benzo withdrawal&quot; or similar to educate yourself.  looking back, my original anxiety was nothing compared to the torture i went through once i was addicted to klonopin.  and i am not through it yet.  words  can not explain the horror i went through.  that is why i beg you to do your own research.  most doctors don&#039;t know or are in denial about the withdrawal effects of benzodiazepines.  the stories you will find are not lies or exaggerations. buyer beware! please!!"
