The popular theory among psychiatrists is that because clonazepam has a slower onset and a longer duration of action that it is less addictive. This may be true only in the sense that one has to dose their benzodiazepine less frequently to avoid rebound and or withdrawal. And psychologically a person will tend to make the association between the pill and the effect less clearly. But this does not address the physical dependence issue.

Wh you go to discontinue it, its like all the other benzodiazepine drugs. A real serious pain in the *ss to stop taking and certainly no easier than the others. Also because of their higher receptor binding potency; ativan, xanax, and clonazepam may be harder to withdraw from than valium or tranxene or librium. But any way you cut it, they are all difficult to withdraw from.

There is no easy way with the benzos.
