Bipolar Disorder Support Group
Bipolar disorder is not just a single disorder, but a category of mood disorders marked by periods of abnormally high energy and euphoria, often accompanied by bouts of clinical depression. This is the place to talk about your experience with bipolar disorder, learn from others' experiences, and find support.

In a pinch , I will take one in the day time
That being said, it is highly addictive, medical community rates it just under Opiates (oxycodone, oxycontin, etc) in terms of addiction and emergency room visits/fatalities. Do not mix it with alcohol and do your own research as to how it interacts with the other meds you are taking. In the event you decide to go off of it make sure to taper down your dosage. Withdrawl symptoms from Klonopin I found were much worse than coming off of morphine and percocet. It feels like sticking your finger in a power outlet, you can't sleep, any little noise will make you want to punch something, muscle spasms galore. I also found the worst of it to be a week after suddenly stopping as opposed to morphine where you feel it 24 hours later.
In a nutshell, if you can avoid taking it my advice is to do so. If not, make sure your usage is closely monitored and pay close attention as to how it affects your reaction time (driving).
