I have a good deal of experience with Klonopin, and the OP's post raises some red flags in my mind. My first suicide attempt occurred shortly after I was given Klonopin for the first time. Nobody saw the connection at the time, but over the 7 subsequent years that I took Klonopin, there were other incidents that in hindsight were definitely related to the disinhibiting effects of the drug, and addiction. Perhaps because I had been pretty volatile all my life, my doctor didn't connect the dots, or perhaps she really didn't know enough about benzos and benzo addiction. In addition to the disinhibition, I found that the physical addiction symptoms actually present BETWEEN doses, causing constant distress. I learned all of this, and put all of the pieces together when I did my final withdrawal (cold turkey at home) after taking about 30 milligrams. The website www.benzo.org.uk provided me with a wealth of information aboout my disastrous experiences with Klonopin. I highly recommend that anybody taking benzos should avail themselves of some really good info.
