Hi: I really feel for you...I know it seems like such a "no win" situation.
It's great that you have got rid of your anxiety symptoms.
Now to get rid of the residual depression and deal with the benzo withdrawal symptoms!
Do you think it's possible that you actually have a seizure disorder, like Temporal Lobe Epilepsy?
There is a huge parallel in terms of physical & mental/emotional symptoms, with anxiety-depression disorders. There is a lot of research being done by neuro-psychiatrists right now.
I just thought that it might be possible that the Klon. is taking care of a seizure disorder, since it's primary use was always as an anti-convulsant/seizure med. And that is why you get seizure-like activity on withdrawal???? Just me pondering the possibilities. Try searching the 'net for Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (or TLE) and see if you have any of the symptoms. Then mention it to your Pdoc (although, I think neurologists might be more familiar with the condition).

If you search the archives here at Babble, I remember some quite interesting ideas and links for kicking the benzo habit.
Best of luck to you!
Jas
