I'm a 50 yo female and have been on the benzo wagon due to insomnia I should have addressed naturally, but did not, so I have been on this wagon for 15 years and it has messed me up with EVERY side effect imaginable. As of late, I have wanted to get the f-ck off these meds or at least some of them. I can't seem to get a straight answer on Benzo Buddies. I want to mainly get off this 1mg of Klonopin with a slow taper through the compounding pharmacy I work and maybe stay on the Lunesta or lower it and add in Seroquel which has worked in the past. I have a disabled spine and tinnitus as a side-note and become pretty hopeless, but I know it's the benzos speaking. SO, my question is, is it safe to taper the Klonopin first and then lower the Lunesta? I have wicked insomnia with nightmares, my dad is dying and I live alone in a moldy apartment. Yeah, life is just grand.
 
I tapered from from 6mg of clonazepam to 0 in 3 weeks. after 12 years.

Very cold. No sickness.
