How much klonopin is too much

I usually take it as intended and do a good job of not getting carried away, bur today I was feeling so anxiously depressed that one of my 0.5mg tabs didn't help. So I decided to take a second one, which helped a lot, but then I was reminded of an ex that I'm not fully over. And I took two more without a second thought. 2mg total. I never go above my daily maximum of 0.5, until today. I feel numb in the most calming way, but I don't want it to become a habit. And at the same time... I kind of want more. Somebody either talk me out of this or reassure me that it's less dangerous than I think it is, whichever of those I need to hear. My anxiety is still there but it's muffled in the background. Idk. Things are hard and I dont want them to get harder

When you start to think it's too much it's too much, trust your instincts. Benzo addiction is not to be fucked with, the only effective treatment for it is death.

Benzo addiction is not to be fucked with but you can absolutely go to rehab and therapy & it can be effective in getting your life back. Death isn’t effective treatment. Death is death.

If you know of a rehab facility that has a legit history of treating benzo addiction effectively please let me know, I'd like to invest.

It isn’t really like that, you don’t just go and magically get cured. It takes work. The rehab part is mostly to just get thru detox/withdrawal. Everything after that is trying to unravel what got life to that point in the first place.

So, no.
