dizziness

hi just wondering has anyone got any reviews regarding taking clonazepam for dizziness! am now currently one year into constant light headiness and dizzy. Have tried various medications for ? vestibular migraine/bppv1 . My doctor has suggested trying this new drug but am worried as it is quite addictive, any imput would be appreciated.

    Please please do not start it. I was on it for 18 months. It was a nightmare, and even worse weaning off. It took months to withdrawal from .25-.50 mg.

    And I went through protracted withdrawal for atleast 2 years after coming off.

    Your body is dependent on it after 2 weeks.

    I would just hate to see you start it.

    If I knew then what I know now.........
