> I was on 0.75mg 2 times/day of clonazepam for 7 weeks and it made me very angry, irritable, dysphoric, I felt miserable 24/7 and I was a nasty person to be around because of it, and I went down to .5 mg twice daily and I still am more easily irritable and angered but nothing like I was on .75 mg. So I can't go higher on the clonazepam dosage, and I'm now thinking about going lower to .25 mg twice a day because I still have dysphoria from this dosage.
Clonazepam can be a real downer for some people. It is not uncommon that depression and dysphoria develop during its use. Xanax XR might be a useful alternative.
