my Doctor directed me to take one .5mg twice a day for social phobia. I've also been taking Nardil for 3 weeks.
Tuesday- I took .5mg of klonopin. I fell asleep and missed my class. I didn't even remember getting sleepy, it was like I just got knocked out. Took .5mg again before bed.
Wednesday- Took .5mg in the morning. I went to class and had a hard time paying attention, I kept swaying around in my chair. I tried to take notes but I couldn't write well. I dropped my pen a few times and didn't even know. Missed my next class because I wasn't paying attention to the time. (I always pay attention to the time.) I fell asleep around 2pm and didn't get up until 6:30 this morning. Didn't take another .5mg since I was in bed.
Thursday- Today. When I woke up I wasn't sure if it was Thursday or Wednesday. I looked on the calendar to find out. I also woke up every few hours in the night. My body felt heavy. My walking is a bit unsteady.
I talked to someone yesterday and then immediately forgot we had just talked.
I had memory problems before starting medication, but it is worse since starting Klonopin. I thought starting at 1mg might be too much for me. I don't know if it is a factor or not but I am 5'4" and 95lbs. Perhaps I should just take one .25mg twice a day.
Any Comments?
