Hello
 
I have been taking klonopin for 20 years. I am ready to quit. I am exhausted.

Welcome to SR. You will find a lot of people with experience here who can help you.

Do you have a doctor to help you get off the drug?

I have been looking at a few detox places but they are very expensive. I thought maybe I can taper myself off slowly

((amisu)) - Welcome to SR! I do highly recommend that you work with a dr., even on a taper program. Coming off benzos can be very dangerous.

I'm glad you found us - I'm sure you will find a lot of support here!

Hugs and prayers,

Amy
