Answer:

Yes. Klonopin encourages you to sit around or lie down. I take the stuff and have to excercise some to stay sharp, or at least as sharp as I can be. Even a walk will help...the energy feeds on itself, and when you do something, you will have the energy to do something else. Klonopin is good for anxiety but would also make a good sleeping pill.

I would recommend that you do push yourself to do at least some exercise. I take enough Klonopin a day to tranquilize a horse, but I force myself to get some exercise every day, even if it's just walking a couple of blocks at a fast pace. Also, if your Klonopin is making you that tired, you might want to discuss with your prescribing physician about other benzodiazepines that work with the body a bit differently. For instance, I take the Klonopin Wafer, but I also take Ativan -- both benzodiazepines. The wafers are kind of like a time-release dosage, so that I get the same dose all day for 24 hours. The Ativan is my physician's choice for me for a fast-acting medication. You might find that the wafer doesn't make you as tired.
