A little bit about what led me to discover this community/family. Eleven years ago I began treatment for panic disorder. For a very long time things went well. Maybe too well. I was given Klonopin 2MGx3 times per day and during most of 2018 was being given 2MGx4 times per day. My world began to end around the last quarter of 2018. My doctor began cancelling appointments which led to blatantly just not showing up to the office. He did continue to e-scribe for awhile even though he was not keeping appointments but, then he dropped the bomb. He closed his practice and literally abandoned all his patients. I had to scramble to find a new doctor to treat my panic disorder. The problem with this was every doctor was all the sudden scared to death to prescribe a benzo. My first new doctor immediately put me on 5MGx3 times per day of Valium. I had no idea about benzo equivalencies and could not figure out why after about day five I began to get really sick. I made an emergency appointment with him to tell him what was happening to me mentally and physically. He was smug and simply told me I was addicted to benzodiazepines. I suffered horribly for seven weeks and began trying to solve my own problem after I realized all three of the doctors I went to see wanted nothing to do with benzos and were looking to taper their patients fast. I had to treat myself. I have for the most part got my life back by acquiring and researching clonazolam, diclazepam, etizolam, flualprazolam and alprazolam presses. 

 
Sorry to hear about your situation, but am not surprised. A quick search found this conversion calculator. Perhaps it would help. I did the kl2op to v@l and was shocked at the reduction.

Hi Stas56. Thanks for the reply and the calculator. You are right the potency difference is incredible. That doctor could have killed me and for many weeks I thought I would die or have a seizure. Emergency rooms are no help at all. That's why I had to start treating my panic disorder myself.

 
I can't vouch to the accuracy of that calculator. It might be worth doing some searching. YMMV

Just trying to help

Your help and support is much appreciated. The calculator is good. I've done much research on the topic of equivalencies and it is quite accurate. Thanks for being around.

Happy this chart even got to me to get seeing

 
@Ipon Nice to hear that I am not alone in my quest to have a normal life with Panic Disorder. I too never asked for Benzos, they were prescribed to me. Some doctors have treated me like some kind "addict."  (No judgement for those who enjoy recreational use) I have since talked to dr.s who have explained that anyone who takes benzos become dependent. And people with my illness need to live with that fact. But it is behavior, or a constant seeking of a high that makes dependence into addiction. Some small comfort. Klonopin is what works for me. The problem that I have found is that U.S. generics of the medication are terrible. The efficacy  is very low as compared to the way overpriced Roche. That is why I am stumbling my way around online pharms. So far, not such great results.

  19. LW815 @ LW815: Know what’s really going on in somebody else’s head or how much they’re really dealing with and feel like they’re left with no other options. Been a very sad few days but 2 complete (irl anyway) strangers cared enough about what I was going through to talk to me about it, though they owe me nothing and have no reason to help my personal pain other than the kindness in their own hearts. Just shows that this place is a real community, not just a forum of people who only care about themselves.
  20. LW815 @ LW815: Was nodding in/out the entire time writing those shouts and spparently was fully out sending the last one lol. But II find it ‘uplifting’ as two people I’ve never actually met and only know the others online presence through subscriptions, who I have a better chance of getting a handy J from Jesus Christ himself, both were so quick to share their own experience and wise words and assurances that things will look up and not to feel guilty or be mad at somebody for going that route - as you never
