[Pa...] Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 How difficult would it be to taper off 0.25 mg Clonazepam after taking it for 4 years ? Only once before sleeping ?what to expect ? Hi Porusss, if you'll start a thread of your own we can discuss this with you? You can either start a thread on the Withdrawal Support (during your taper) board to talk about your questions, or you can start one of the direct taper board and we can help you get started on a taper plan, this is the link. http://www.benzobuddies.org/forum/index.php?board=56.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Je...] Posted May 19, 2022 Author Share Posted May 19, 2022 hey guys , did you guys get the really hot feeling on your body. like you had a fever but didn’t? also did you feel like your mind wasn’t working? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ka...] Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 hey guys , did you guys get the really hot feeling on your body. like you had a fever but didn’t? also did you feel like your mind wasn’t working? Yes, I had both of those symptoms but particularly the second one. About the hot feeling - to this day I get strange temperature sensations, both hot and cold. They can be generalized or they can be localized like in my foot/feet or legs in particular. It makes sense because benzos work in the nervous system and we have nerves all over out bodies. About our minds working, sometimes I had evidence that my mind was working because I was getting things done in my life but the feeling that it wasn't working was there. I've learned to rely on the evidence rather than the feeling :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I've been calling them hot flashes and mine have been severe. I get so incredibly hot and the waves have been both longer and more intense in my final weeks of tapering and my two weeks post taper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Na...] Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 update. i am at .020 mgs i will jump off once i get to .12 mgs which is a bear to measure. it i can get really close. @here for help I the yellow pills .5 mg ones . i’m not at home but i use to worry about that then i just let it go. i don’t think there is a perfect solution here tho. Jeremy, I was wondering what percent you are cutting each time and how often? I am also tapering clonazepam dry taper method but I don't know what I'm doing! My first 3 cuts I've been cutting my .5mg tablets in 4 and taking out a fourth, that was fine art first but I can't keep doing that. I would like to do 10% cuts currently at .875mg. I don't know how to weigh the cut and I am needing to dose 4 times a day so can you help me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
