>Matt,
don't want to scare you, but early morning awakenings or nocturnal awakenings are an early warning sign of depression, and should be taken seriously. They are not caused by Klonopin, unless of course Klonopin is causing depression. Nevertheless, you need to do what I didn't do back when I was only on Klonopin and Desoxyn and thought I was too good for antidepressants that failed me:
try antidepressants agressively. Cymbalta is promising, and offers me some hope to try it out. Talk to your doc and therapist about this. Do not do what I did- deny depression-- it gets worse and worse until it's like impossible to dig yourself out from. It's been two years now. I really want you to realize I'm concerned for you.
