Hi Squiggles,

Just one note about clonazepam. I have noticed in the last few months (after about being mostly on it for 3 years), that it *doesn't* work worth a dang for sleep like it used to. I can *get* to sleep on it but it won't keep me asleep. The *good* part is it still works fantastic for social phobia symptoms. I can take just a 1/4 of a .5mg tab in the day (with a little Neurontin) and I feel a big difference.
