...working. Regarding Dr. De Ridder, I respect him—he’s well-informed, articulate, and knowledgeable. However, he does have a habit of contradicting himself at times. With this in mind, I take much of what he says with a grain of salt. His advice and opinions on Clonazepam are all over the place.

@Nick47, why does Clonazepam help so much, man? It even reduces somatic tones as well as my brain tone from visual snow.

...and a consult with a neuromuscular dentist to evaluate problems with my jaw and TMJ. Here is my question: I was recently prescribed Clonazepam .5 mg twice a day by my psychiatrist for the terrible anxiety and panic I’ve experienced since this whole T thing started (I had anxiety before T as...

@object16, do you take 0.5 mg of Clonazepam daily and use a higher dose during a spike? Also, do you take Carbamazepine as well? I had a private conversation with Brian Fargo, who described Clonazepam as a “game changer,” although he mentioned it doesn’t work for everyone. In the UK, I’m...

Yeah, Clonazepam has a longer half-life than Ativan, so a single dose keeps you under the influence of the medication for a longer period. However, because of the much longer effect, I would expect tolerance and dependency to develop more quickly if the doses are of the same potency and taken on...

With severe hyperacusis? A supply of Clonazepam for occasional use.

...for me. My psychiatrist mentioned that if Trileptal didn’t provide any benefits, the next step would be transitioning me from Ativan to Clonazepam. I’ve been taking Ativan daily since this all started two years ago, with a dosage of 0.5 mg in the morning and 0.5 mg in the evening. My...

Today I learned: Clonazepam doesn't help with sleep if you have high temperature

...I was only able to sleep after about 86 hours of being awake. The next morning, I went to a neurologist who prescribed me 0.5 mg of Clonazepam at night to control the myoclonic jerks. I was scheduled to have an EEG but the lockdown hindered me. My neurologist was not replying to any of my...

Update. I'm surprisingly fine. Can't believe Clonazepam and 20mg or prednisone saved my butt (once again). Still in shock tho

Hello everyone! I just want to make sure I understand (English is not my first language). Does Clonazepam help by calming you down, or does it actually reduce the volume of your tinnitus?

Doctors are correct to be cautious with Clonazepam; the problem is, no one fully understands tinnitus or is eager to treat it. I found myself in a critical situation with my career in a different city when I experienced a severe spike in symptoms and went days without sleep. Fortunately, I knew...

Hi, looking for some advice. I have talked about this before on the forum. I took Clonazepam .5mg to 1mg 6-7 times over 3 weeks and then took it continuously either .5 or 1mg for one week. I’ve been tapering now for about 5 weeks. I started the taper at .75 since it was in between dose. I’m...

...me from time to time. It is maddening, but it has occurred so often that now I just fume for a while and then take a significant dose of Clonazepam to suppress the spike. Usually, several days of a higher Clonazepam dose helps to bring the spike down. You could even get a prescription for...

Unfortunately, I don't live in a country where I can get to those services without a referral, so I'm left with my family doctor. However, she is more open to things lately but still is cautious, which I can appreciate. I'm hoping the NAC hasn't caused damage, as I've read other people...

Did you notice any benefits from the patches after just a few days, or did it happen suddenly during the second week?

I have been taking Clonazepam 0.5 mg for about 2 weeks to help with sleep but decided not to continue because it was not really helping me. After trying to do a rapid taper my tinnitus went through the roof. So I went back up to my original dosage and started a slower taper at 0.125 mg for 5...

Past my 1 year tinnitus birthday with no big changes to it. I’m still on Zolpidem and clonazepam but working with my doctor to get off them. Hope I can still sleep cold Turkey

Literally my life depends rn on 1 mg of clonazepam and 20 mg of prednisone. I know you have to take 50 for acoustic trauma but I'm scared..

Hi everyone. Long time reading this helpful forum but first post. I was prescribed with Clonazepam (Rivotril) 0'25 mg three times/day, 2 weeks ago due to my anxiety problems and mild tinnitus mainly. It seems it doesn't lower my tinnitus level. So, after reading other posts, could be better to...

Has anybody gotten worse tinnitus during benzo (clonazepam) taper?

...read elsewhere that you used Xanax to help you while habituating. After my tinnitus worsened last year, my doctor prescribed me .5mg of Clonazepam once per night. I have been taking that now for a little over a year. I feel like I do not need it any longer and continuing to take it makes me...

@Michael Leigh, I have found Clonazepam to be vital. However, it sometimes takes up to 24 hours to reduce the intensity, and I find the effect lasts for about another 24 hours. The effect seems even more pronounced when I combine it with Deanxit.

...doses, you could fall without being able to protect yourself. I normally take 150 mg twice—once at night and again if I wake up around 2 or 3 AM. Right now, I’m taking 450 mg of Pregabalin, 2 mg of Clonazepam, 125 mg of Seroquel, and 30 mg of Mirtazapine. All that does is put me to...

Normally, a TCA like Amitriptyline or Nortriptyline is paired with Flupentixol or Aripiprazole, Clonazepam or Gabapentin, and Magnesium or Vitamin B2. These are medical cocktails from Hamid Djalilian and Dirk De Ridder. I've seen others on here take e.g., Deanxit and Clonazepam & Carbamazepine...

Xanax shouldn't be taken along with the large doze of Clonazepam he took, which is also a benzo, with a much longer half life than Xanax. Mind over matter might work for stable mild to moderate tinnitus.

@Erika, I just listened to the Brian Fargo interview. He takes 1 mg of Clonazepam per day. He seems to be working and carrying on with life.

...the dosage carefully. You really have to do the same with any benzo. If you reach a point where you have to take enormous amounts of Clonazepam, you may need to taper. On the other hand, I've seen epileptics with myoclonia get up to 20 mg of Clonazepam, which is an enormous dose, but it works...

...but louder. I've had tinnitus for 15 months or so in my left ear but I was habituated. Due to a different condition I begun to take Clonazepam 5 months ago. The first 3 months I was taking 0.25 mg (half a pill) and then 0.5 mg. I began withdrawal 20 days ago taking 0.375 mg (three quarters...

I will be switching to Clonazepam this coming Thursday. My psychiatrist suggested starting with a 0.5 mg dose at night in case it makes me noticeably sleepy. If it doesn’t, he said I could take it either in the morning or evening, depending on which time benefits me the most. He actually wrote...

Thank you for your reply, Stephan. It means so much to me! I will try using hearing aids and massage, and I'll ask about Gabapentin.

Thank you, @Nick47!

...combines CBT, sound therapy, nutraceuticals, and medications. Additionally, there’s the Shulman Protocol, which involves Gabapentin and Clonazepam, or Dirk De Ridder’s protocol, which includes Deanxit, Aripiprazole, Clonazepam, and sometimes LDN or Cyclobenzaprine. Some people find relief...

My T spike is still here and 2mg of clonazepam did nothing at all. I still can't sleep. The ringing is just too loud. Crazy. CRAZY times

Mixing Clonazepam and delta 8 to help with spike. I hope it will help at least somehow. Unbelievable

Agreed. I occasionally take 0.5 mg of Lorazepam, which has an equivalent potency to 0.25 mg of Clonazepam, and also a shorter half-life. I try to limit my usage to once per week because benzodiazepines can lead to very rapid tolerance. A dose of 0.75 mg of Clonazepam would be equivalent in...

...Im still living the good days / bad days pattern. Some days my T seems to be more "maskable" than others... The question is... Can I take Clonazepam for a short vacation period? I'm talking about 3, 4...5 days on. No more. What about the dosage? I don't want to change the natural evolution...

I’ve been taking clonazepam 1mg with 12.5 mg zolpidem since April 5. I get decent sleep - 6 hrs last night.

I've recently tried Rivotril (Clonazepam) and it did reduce the loudness of my tinnitus. I'd say by 25-30%. I won't continue as I've pretty much habituated to it but I'll keep it in case of a major setback.

Do you take Clonazepam regularly? Does it actually help with tinnitus? I’ve considered it as well, although doctors in our country are very reluctant to prescribe it.

Friends, I got tinnitus from a combination of Clonazepam and Amitriptyline. First, when I stopped Clonazepam, I got tinnitus that was somewhat bearable. Then, when I stopped Amitriptyline, it got three weeks after the last dose so so much worse. It's been now 6 months and the tinnitus is still...

There's a thread about Carbamazepine that you might find helpful. Some people report benefits from using it, while others don't. A few members here take it in combination with Clonazepam, though it's worth noting that it can cause negative side effects for some individuals.

So, I've been on clonazepam 0.5 mg for a about four months now, and am thinking it's time to taper off. My ENT said I could probably just stop because it's a low dose, but I don't think I want to do that. I've read through the Ashton, although didn't find a specific taper schedule for 0.5...

Right ear lost all hearing. Ringing louder. Going to urgent care rn for methylprednisolone prescription. Crying. 6mg clonazepam don't help

There is no real pattern. I take 2-3 mg Diazepam several days a week, and low dose Gabapentin (300-600 mg) every day. I use Clonazepam twice a week to once a week, however usually with Gabapentin and Deanxit.

...300 mg of Gabapentin in January and increased the dosage to 900 mg by the beginning of March. During this period, I had taken 0.5 mg of Clonazepam a few times, perhaps three or four times, which significantly reduced my tinnitus for around 5-6 hours. However, at the end of February, I began...

A saw a spealist earlier this year who put me on 2mg clonazepam and 50mg amisulpride, he told me if I didn't see any improvements in 2 weeks to stop but he didn't explain why, I had no idea it was addictive. I took it for 2 months. I saw my doctor a week a half ago who told me to stop taking it...

Thanks, @Wouter De Blaere! How have Deanxit and Aripiprazole been working for you without Clonazepam? Could you share any common side effects you've experienced? Thanks, Nick

Many people say clonazepam helps them tremendously, but for me it's my ADHD meds. Maybe my ADHD is what makes habituation harder?

I never stopped Rivotril. You should not stop it if you take Deanxit. Rivotril counters an annoying side effect of Deanxit (Parkinson spasms).

Besides Clonazepam, Gabapentin helps a little, and Cyclobenzaprine as well when I tried it. I've been using a cocktail approach.

Took .5 Clonazepam and 10 mg of d8. I know none of this will help with a possible spike but at least now I have some chance to fall asleep..
