Perspectives sure differ! I take 2-3 mg clon./day and consider it a low dose for me -- but frequently get comments from pharmacists & drs. that that's a high dose. I have a pretty high tolerance to benzos generally: at one time I was taking up to 6 mg Ativan in 1 or 2 doses for performance anxiety, and it was just enough!
I hadn't thought of it as a mood stabilizer, but that makes perfect sense. I will likely need to wean myself from it soon, as my high tolerance makes me a candidate for addiction problems. The last pdoc I saw recommened I go back on Lamictal, which I'll post about separately.
