Same here. I did feel a sense of deprivation for a while until I adjusted though.

>When I abused these substances in the true sense it was to get something, not to stave off something. That's what feels so upsetting to me about the clonopin- the need to stave off something-it's not like I just loved how it felt and wanted more of the feeling or anything like that.

Yes, I'm not sure I got 'high' on Klonopin either. The euphoria was more to do with the overwhelming sense of relief when all the anxiety melted away. I had little trouble withdrawing from opiates even though they are pleasurable to me - they enhance life, but benzos I sometimes think I need just to survive.
