"since i was 13 years old. anxiety has been a severely debilitating issue in my life. it&#039;s destroyed most of the relationships in my life and stopped me from maturing as a person in terms of moving up in the job field. a lot of people would consider me weird, because of becoming very reclusive due to my anxiety disorder. when i am on klonopin... it is completely different! i have a lot of energy, motivation and i&#039;m anxiety free. the most i&#039;ve taken consecutively was 2mg  for about 2 weeks and after stopping for about 2-3 days after that i&#039;d never feel any withdrawal effects. this is usually the cycle i use. the quality of my life is drastically better on benzodiazapine medication."
