Well, I have (in my opinion) severe anxiety and [clinical] depression (from my father). The anxiety is what seems to keep me a lazy piece of shit, no motivation.. and sadly without a drug in my system every 1 -2 weeks, I seem to just COMPLETELY start to lose it. It's not addiction to benzos or withdrawal, however, they help the most. For some reason without an amphetamine or benzo, I literally lose all focus and start to become a litttttle bit nuts. In a sense, benzos are kind of like adderall, they keep me focused on a task that I NEED to be focused on [like my job....].

Anyway, I feel like I should get prescribed a benzo... however I feel like I will lose everything due to this drug, at the same time I will lose everything without this drug. Klonopin in specific, it has helped me out WAY beyond other benzos, and I don't even need to get high off it, I honestly don't care to anymore.

Do you guys think if I were to take a moderate dose of clonazepam when needed, I would be fine? Or take it as prescribed, if I were too?

I've had all klonopin/clonazepam types, .5s, 1s, 2s... the 2mg pills seem to be the best, even when split in halves. It gives me a cleaner feeling of it, literally. [just a small note, I guess..]
 
I have quite the experience with benzos in particular and drugs in general. I'm honestly going to be pissed and flustered if I get prescribed Xanax or Ativan... YAY I can make money but they don't help for shit...and if they prescribed me to zoloft or some other piece of shit anti-depressant.. then I would flush them down the toilet.
 
If you choose to use benzos on a regular basis (each day or so) you will eventually develop tolerance to those drugs... If I were you I'd only use them as needed, and I would set a limit (6mg per month for example).
SSRIs do get a lot of negative reviews, but they do help in some cases. I'm on zoloft, and it really really helps with my depression. Does absolutely nothing for my anxiety though.

Yea I need a benzo because it is anti dep. and anx.

Also, I don't need em every day. Once a week if I do it exactly right. I know the doctor would say take this (?) times a day, but I know long term effects and tolerance. My tolerance to black out is like 15mg haha. But 1.5-2mg will get me through the day.
