Yeah, I would say so, Stavros, that 2mg is too much if you're benzo naive. Although Klonopin is a bit more subtle in terms of onset compared to quicker-acting benzos like Valium and Xanax, it is still a very powerful benzo, on par with Xanax in terms for mg-for-mg strength. It might take a couple hours to kick in, but once it does kick in, it is one of the most powerful anxiolytic-benzos and myorelaxant-benzos, and also has strong decently powerful anti-panic effects.
It is more sedating and muscle-relaxing than Xanax, so it will give you a very powerful body-buzz compared to Xanax, which is quite cerebral and has poor muscle relaxing effects. These deal with physical anxiety and tension symptoms better than Xanax, while Xanax is best used as an "as needed" benzo to abort a panic attack faster than a speeding bullet. If you are going to venture into the physically-addictive world of benzos for therapeutic and not recreation purposes, I would highly recommend Klonopin once daily for GAD and muscle spasms, Valium for muscle spasms (but it doesn't long last enough for daily dosing for GAD, which shows how half lives do not equal duration of action), and a low-dose (0.5mg or lower for the benzo naïve) dose of Xanax as needed for either panic attacks or extreme anxiety/PTSD flareups.
