Looking for help with klonopin use after 37 days! started taper what should I expect?

[TxCowgirl]

Looking for some help. I was put on klonopin 37 days ago at 2 mg 1 at night and 1 in the morning. I want off this drug so bad. I was put on them after galbladder surgery said my anxiety was to high. I hate this med. It makes me feel like I am going crazy. My ? is My doctor started my taper 11/12/2014 with my doctors help. I cant stand to take them anymore. But I am scared of seizures and other bad wd. I so want to cold turkey like i did 17 years ago off of drugs all kinds and heavy drinking cold turkey. I am down to 1/2 a pill at night and dont want to even take it. I was wondering if I should do a fast taper like my doctor and pharmacist suggest? I do see my doctor tomorrow. Every time I take one I feel like total crap. when it starts to wear off then I feel so much better. Can anyone help or have any input on this. 8(

You're nearly there. Do a fast taper like your doctor and pharmacist suggest. You've only been on them just over a Month.

Good luck.
