Well I had a Psychiatrist in Wisconsin who never changed my dose. Since moving to Indiana I just seen my new Psychiatrist yesterday. I told him I wanted the panic to stop. SO he put me on Effexor and has me coming off the klonopin in one week? Is this ok?
Today I will take 1 mg 2 times
Tomorrow will take 1mg only once
Next day 1/2 mg twice a day (do this for 2 days)
then he gave me a prescription for 1/2 mg
He told me to crack those in half and take 2 (am pm) on that day
Then the last day only take half of on pill

Now to me this seems kind of fast but I am no Psychiatrist!
Just wondering if this is to fast for as long as I have been taking them.
Thanks for any input.
