Hi.. I understand ur problem. Clonazepam 0.5 mg for 2 months does not create dependence. You may consult ur psychiatrist and taper the dose within a month. Additionally if u have anxiety or depressive symptoms, u may need antidepressant medications, which may help u.

Yes This is habit forming over the long term. If you have some issues, we need to discuss them and consider the appropriate treatment.

Yes, it is habit forming and probably you are already in a trap as you have talked about confusion on reducing the dose. The dose should have been reduced after a week of use and stopped after 2 weeks of total use.

Consult a Psychiatrist in-person
