Yes.

What Benzo's are you on Lindel?

I was on Klonopin and had the same scenario as you. My pdoc switched me to Valium 2mg 3x a day and it works well. In fact, most days I only take it 2x per day- 1 upon waking and the other at bed time...

I've had two different anti-psychotics stop working for me,
perphenazine and risperdal. I don't use any anti-psychotic right now and things are going ok. This is all typical for the benzos from what I understand.

Yep! I took Klonopin for months for panic attacks & horrible anxiety that is part of everyday life. I was up to 5mg a day, which is a lot I think. Anyway, I grew tolerant of it & it lost all effectiveness, or so I thought until I went off of it. Withdrawals were no fun!!!

Now I take Valium (Diazepam) the 5mg ones as needed. I started these to ease the withdrawal symptoms when I quit drinking alcohol & they still come in handy in a bind such as a sudden panic attack. Xanax were also pretty good & FAST for those horrible edgy times, but they are short lived & extremely addictive!

Sounds pretty standard. Your body will develop a tolerance to all meds that you take, basically. All you can do is switch it up or take more. SRC

Sme thing happened to me on klonopin doc switched and put me on valuem now i am on zanax like it but does not last long in system i loves the klonopin but after awhile they just stopped workin i guess that is how they all are after awhile

i take klonipin at bedtime as well but i take it with quite a few other meds. they make me sleep most of the time. i have been taking them for about 12 years......

I was given a RX for Klonopin ,tohelp anxiety and sleep.
I take 2 at night ,aprox at 10 PM.
Around 2Am ,I get a little sleepy,go to bed,sleep 2 hours ,and then I'm awakre untill 4 or 5 .

My Xanax seem to work better for me.They are supposed to be less powerful,and last less time,but I find both work about the same..with the Xanax,I feel less of a hangover.

I just saw my pdoc and he started me on an anti-psychotic Risperadone to see if it will work with Lithium...which didn't work by itself...aaarrrr!!! My doc also told me he is having a hard time treating me....duh.....going on a year already.....aaaahhhh!!!! He says I do well for a time and then....bang....not working anymore. I think us bp's are hard to treat but once we find the right meds we can do fine...at least for a while.

Yes i take same amountas you but on an as need basis. When I am really depressed they appear to do NOTHING.When I am mildly depressed they do something for anxiety.

So far, I'm lucky, been on .5 mg of Klonopin for a year now and it helps with the restlessness and anxiety.
