Your doctor might just be acting in your best interests. By discontinuing your Klonopin, they might be helping you avoid getting addicted (if you aren't a bit already...whether physically or mentally). I don't think benzos are "bad" or anything, but they're better for short term help. Therapy and learning other ways of coping with your anxiety has the potential to help you for the rest of your life instead of for the next 4-6 hours. Try learning some breathing exercises in the next month and tough it out, if for no other reason than to say you tried a new approach.
