How much valium were you taking and how long had you been on it before you tried to withdraw?
I was on only 1 mg of Klonopin for 12 years.....in hindsight, it started to effect me negatively after about 8 but becuase it was so slow and insideious, you don't know it is the drug......near the end, I was hostile, anxious, obsessed, lacked judgement etc....just like a drunk since they hit the same receptor sites.....it took me a long time to recover....i worked hard......guess what....I have no anxiety, or anything after recovering.......it was the damned pills that made me sick and I now have medical proof of that..
