Klonopin. Can you guys help me?

So I tapered down off Klonopin awhile ago and got down to .125 a day from .5 a day

Anyways I went to my doctor and she was like that's not even doing anything so I just stopped. Well as after a week or something i started taking it every now and again, .25mg

Now I've stopped and it's my 6th day of just stopping, am I going to be Okay? I can deal with the withdrawal feeling but I'm just so scared of seizures.

I was only taking it for a year. Thanks

.5 mg is a very small dose. I think you'd have to be on quite a bit more to experience intense withdrawal symptoms (puking often, seizing, not sleeping for days, etc.) You won't have a seizure. Congrats on getting off of it! (:

It's true Elizabeth04, I agree with someone5673, in that you are safe from seizures. You would need to be on high doses and basically stop cold turkey before going into a seizure. Of course anything is possible but not on your minute dose right now. I hope this relieves some of your fears. Breathe xx
