I've been taking Clonazepam .25mg every day for the last 20 days, and I'm wondering what's the best way to taper off it safely? Also, how long will it stay in my system once I stop taking it? I'm really concerned about doing this the right way and would love your guidance.

View allI'm experiencing something kinda strange: I wake up in the middle of the night and find myself masturbating, but it's like I'm only half-aware while it's happening. I remember it clearly the next day, though. This has been going on for about 3-4 months now, mainly during sleep every 5-6 days. I don't feel the urge or masturbate during the day at allI've stopped doing that since a year ago because I'm trying to focus on my studies and stay out of relationships. It's got me feeling pretty down. I really want to stop this unconscious night-time habit. Any advice on what might be happening and how I can manage it?
