Requesting advice on how to explain this to my dr

Hi everybody. So I’ve been prescribed Klonopin for over 10 years. I moved to a new state last year and was switched from 60 pills a month to 15 and it was hell for months. Now I’ve been slowly brought up to 25 a month (all 1 mg btw). Obviously I feel I was at my best when I was getting the 60 pills and able to take 2 mg a day, I’ve realized this won’t be attainable in my current state and I don’t want to switch doctors and risk my dose being lowered any more. My doctor upped me to 25 per month about 4 months ago but I really feel like I would do better with at least 30 per month. My doc has already upped my dose 2 times since I started with her so I’m afraid if I ask a 3rd time she might cut me off. She also told me that benzos “don’t work if you take them daily”. Personally I’m not really sure what the difference is between 25-30 a month lol. Sometimes she lets me pick up my script a couple days early but I would still feel better knowing I have one every day. Any thoughts or advice on this?
