KLONOPIN side effects: so my cognitive skills have been worse than ever lately, since i started taking kpins. i had ect done years ago but it should’ve resolved by now. anyone else have problems focusing/following convos/remembering things on klonopin? what can i do to get rid of this? my doc just doubled my dose 😳

      💕I don’t have issues, but all my meds together make me a zombie

      Maybe get a second opinion from another dr? Klonopin is a controlled substance and it can cause memory issues if it’s too high

      How much are you taking a day? You should only really be taking it once at most

        @AK11 im on 0.5mg twice a day, so 1mg. if i don’t take it there’s a 99% chance ill have a panic attack so it’s kinda hard for me to only take it once 😅 it’s a 12 hour med so if i only take it at night it doesn’t last all through the next day.. :/

          @angrysloth can you meet with a therapist to find actual coping skills? I also have anxiety and panic attacks but I’m in school studying mental health counseling, it seems like the key is it find the root of the problem and address it and work on coping

      I am on Klonopin 4 mg twice a day and I had the same thing when I started at the highest dose but now after about six weeks and started to go back to normal
