cee,
You wrote the above.
Now I see what can be seen and have the following concerns.
As Ron here has stated, if you take that benzodiazepine, which has a great potential for what some consider to be addiction or "discontinuation syndrome" if one wants to use that description, then the trade could transfer you to a similar situation or maybe worse.
Now I am asking if you could ask your doctor to contact me and I could offer him/her some educational material that could be unbeknownst to him/her that could have the potential IMO for him/her to retract giving you the benzodiazepine.
Lou

I am not familiar with this strategy.

For how long are you to remain on Klonopin?

What makes quitting Invega so hard?

I hope everything works out.

Thanks for all the feedback on my quiting invega.I am very sensitive to drugs so I have very bad anxiety confusion and derealization. The doc told me it would be ok to go with the klonipin until I settle down from quitting invega. I also take 750 mg of seroquel dr for my depression anxiety. Sorry if I do not make sence but I have a really hard time quitting meds
God bless
