Default clonazepam tolerance (resistance)

Can a person build up a resistance to clonazepam. I've been using it as a sleep aid for 8 months and it worked great. Now it doesn't seem to work anymore.

That's because you're building a dependency/tolerance to it. If you up the dose the same thing will happen with that dose too. Then when you up that dose the same thing will happen again and again each time you do an increase. You should find another way to get to sleep. Not judging you, lots of us started out just like you but you're heading to a bad place if you continue. Good luck and God bless.
