he was also prescribed klonopin..i have experience with this benzo, and i had some violent outburst while on it, and especially when i ran out. That was years ago, have learned natural methods to calm my anxiety.

Clonazepam (Klonopin the brand name) is the most brain damaging drug and if taken long enough the damage is irreversble. Klon is a benzo as are Ativan, Xanax and Valium but each drug has a different mechanism of action..

Xanax and Clonazepam are the most potent benzos, 20 times as strong as Valium mg per mg. Xanax has a half life of 10 hours, Clonazepam 50 hours.

Klon is extremely ‘tight binding’ to the receptors, and with its long half life the chemical builds up to levels much greater than the prescribed dose

All benzos enhance the effect of the brains GABA(the ‘calming’ neurotransmitter) by altering the receptors(which are protein molecules). With use as little as a week the receptors are damaged and now the patient is desperate to get his daily fix. Upon withdrawal of the benzo the damaged brain can no longer naturally calm itself and the patient becomes extremely agitated.

THE REAL DAMAGE FROM KLONOPIN : All neurons operate by electrical signaling which last less than a millisecond, via the chloride, sodium, potassium and calcium channels. Every time a person processes information a calcium channel is polarized and opens- THIS IS ESSENTIAL FOR TRANSFERRING INFO TO LONG TERM MEMORY.

When Clonazepam(Klon) reaches micromolar concentrations instantly a subset of these calcium channels are depolarized.

Klon permanently damages cognition, and the intelligent person soon realizes this and lives in a rage.

Right after Aurora I said to folks that Holmes was brain damaged from psyche drugs, and likely was on Klon. This guy was in a PhD program and prescribed Klonopin- his ‘doctor’ should draw a life sentence.

Military Suicides–Klonopin and Seroquel is the standard cocktail, and these men are condemned to a lifetime of cognitive impairment and the reason many commit suicide.

Look it up–Klonopin and Seroquel, often with a SSRI thrown in. In 2012 the military banned Seroquel, unless ‘requested’ by the shrink.

Clonazepam is the real…
