Wow, that's really interesting! I've been diagnosed with Asperger's, and went on clonazepam (and before, Ativan) and that really helped what I thought was anxiety. I mean, I did notice a direct benefit, and there's no reason to believe you over my doctor, but I'm always interested to alternative explanation as to why meds work.
- memossy 10y agoClonazepam in 'standard' doses has a very different effect to clonazepam in microdose, ie 1/50th of the clinical dose. You can see this discussed by Dr Catterral here https://epiphanyasd.blogspot.co.uk/2015/08/low-dose-clonazepam-for-autism-sfari.html?m=1 https://epiphanyasd.blogspot.co.uk/2015/08/low-dose-clonazep... based on the research he did supported by the excellent Simon's foundation (hedge fund manager behind Renaissance) Above a 50mcg dose, the inhibitory effects disappear.
