Updated

How often did you take this pill for mild to general anxiety? Is it addictive or can it be taken indefinitely? What dosage?
Thanks

This pill is very addictive! Please do yourself a favor and do not get on it. It is a horrible drug to be on. It dictates who you are as a person, makes you numb and you sleep your life away. I have been on it 6 years and slowly weaning off. It has taken 3 months for me to wean off of a 0.5 mg 3x a day, now I am down to a .25 mg at night. The withdrawl is terrible. Do not take this drug!

That is, in essence, correct, though I wouldn't advise anyone not to take it, that is something they have to discuss with their doctor and decide for themselves.

But yes, Clonazepam is a Benzodiazepine and it is known to be both habit forming and addictive. If it is taken for a long period of time, then it is also not safe to stop it abruptly, as doing so may cause seizures.

For anxiety, or panic disorders, it is usually taken twice a day.

Are there any other questions or comments?

Have you ever been on Conazepam Verwon? And if so how did you get off and how long did it take you too? Any withdrawl? This drug has me scared out of my wits to get off of! I am on my last leg of it starting next week, I will decrease it to a 0.25 every other night for four weeks. Not sure whether to do that or get a 0.125 and take one every night! I can put up with some of the withdrawl symptoms, I just don't like not being able to sleep and when I reduce the dosage that is what happens. Any advice?

No, it is not a medication I have ever used, I am just here on the site to provide people with information about medications.

When I was hospitalized for a week in 2010, they gave me a different Benzodiazepine, which was Ativan and I did not like the effects it had on me, so I refused to continue taking it.

Have you considered talking to your doctor about using something else to help with the insomnia in the meantime, such as Ambien?

It's specifically meant to be used for short-term treatment of insomnia.
