So I've been on Klonopin for about a year, 3mg throughout each day. It worked really well for me but I decided to taper off so I could cure my anxiety naturally. My taper has been fairly well and I haven't had any of the horrible symptoms most people have. But the headache is excruciating and starts around the middle of the day, everyday... I've tried ibuprofen and natural remedies to get rid of it but it's just so persistent! Any advice???

you were on high doses of it, you need to take your time to get of it, let's say tap down 0.25 and stay on it for two weeks , then another till you go off it without the side effects.. I am on it but on really small dose

I'vebeen on .5 daily for almost a year, been thinking about slowly tapering off to only as needed. I'm happy to see you aren't having any bad symptoms :)

so am I and I do not need to go on more. It was my choice to be on small dose, It is enough to take an edge of anxiety so why more :))
It is the best medication for anxiety I had ever had:)

It definitely is super great for anxiety:) and I have been going off .25mg! Except I don't have a specific time before I taper again. I just wait for my body to adjust and taper when my body is feeling good again! So far, it's helped me tremendously. My body also adjusts fast so it doesn't take long before I taper again. Right now, I'm on 1.25 mg. :D So progress has definitely been made with VERY FEW symptoms. I'll take the advice about the headache though, thank you!
