"i started off taking klonopin after developing severe panic attacks 20 yrs ago. it was a life saver for me! i took it for 15 years and weaned myself off of it with no problems. i am back on it now after 5 yrs of not taking it due to recent life events that started the anxiety back up. i take 1 mg tablets up to twice a day. i&#039;ve never had any of the horrifying withdrawals that other people complain of. klonopin definitely works for me."
