So i'm outta kholnopin and i was,taking 0.5 for 3 years 1 at night i'm scared i'm going to have a sezurie or something is that possible?

"or something...": Taken alone, discontinuing 0.5 mg of Klonopin (clonazepam) is unlikely to provoke a seizure. However, if there is an underlying seizure tendency or other changes also then maybe. If you have been taking a sedative/anticonvulsant for 3 years and then stop it you might certainly have "or something" as a result. Why did you stop it? What has changed? Talk to your doctor.
