I take Klonopin and Celexa and my mood and feeling are better than I remember before I started them. There are many other positive outcomes we have notices. I used to have many addictive behaviors and many of them have ceased. Now for the issues: I fall asleep every time I sit down. I have had arthritis since I was a young teen, so I do need to sit down for breaks anyway. I used to fall asleep from time to time, but now it is everyday. If I am in a meeting I nod off and start snoring. I was not able to work while depressed and anxious with panic attacks. I feel better, but I still am unable to work. I plan to stay on Klonopin as any other of the drugs would probably only be worse. When I was on Ativan about 17 years ago while I was in the hospital it only took me 5 - 15 minutes to fall asleep for at least 8 hours. I have friends that can drive long distances on these drugs, so it is not like this for everyone thank God!
