Tapered off 2 mg klonopin (clonazepam). reinstated at 2mg after roughly 2 months. why do i feel it's not working? was effective prior to taper. need to build up?

Not uncommon : It's not uncommon for medication that worked well at some point, not to work upon restart after discontinuing. Klonopine by itself may not be the best medication for anxiety. Anxiety is better treated with ssri medications.
