I really would like to get rid of my meds, and I am taking more of an active approach to getting rid of my anxiety (IE CBT and persuing NLP as well). I think I can get my anxiety under control without the medication.

Check this link out, hopefully it will answer your questions since it explains Klonopin's neuroprotective properties in layman's terms:

Also check this one out if you would like to learn more about excitatory neurotoxins and the antioxidants which help prevent them from causing damage. Be aware though, it's quite lengthy.
