Does anyone take klonopin? I’m on 2 mg a day but I split them in halves. Do you feel like it would help to take the whole dose twice a day. Right now my anxiety isn’t managed. Advice please!

I would highly recommend you take the entire dose. I’m on 3 a day, I take the entire dose at morning & at night & sometimes split the mid day dose in half to add to the nighttime dose for a better sleep. I struggle with a few different mental health issues from BiPo 1 to GAD. Anxiety is by far the worst, physically for me. KPIN make life doable (most days)! Good Luck!

If u are experiencing so much daily anxiety, my advice is to consult w a psychiatrist and go on a med like Zoloft or Lexapro. It's one dose a day. From my experience Klonopin is supposed to be a temporary drug used as needed. Consult w a psychiatrist & please do not consult w a family doctor.

I have been taking klonopin for about 2 years now along with Prozac. I used it when my anxiety got out of control. I found a good therapist and together we worked on a healthy way of coping and dealing with my fears. Little by little my confidence and feeling of safety came back and I was able to cut down on it. I successfully weaned myself down to a quarter of a .5 mg tablet at bedtime. I increase it when needed only. I hope to one day be able to stay off it mostly .
