I was put on clonazepam .5 and I took it for 5 weeks everyday after I had my 2nd baby because I suffer from anxiety. I remember when she was five weeks old I didn't take it for a couple of days and right when I started my first period (sorry tmi) which was 3 days later that I hadn't taken any, I started getting dizzy all day that day. I have been dizzy ever since. Also have pressure in my left ear and sometimes it will be in the back of my head too. I have took them on and off since then, but I just looked it up last night the symptoms of withdrawals and it kind of makes sense. I also did not abuse my clonazepam. I took one everyday for 5 weeks. Any advice?

    She is 8 weeks old now so this has been about 3 weeks. I'm thinking my symptoms may be still going on because I continued to take them on and off after those few days that I didn't take them and then all of this started rolleyes
