Klonopin and anxiety

TODAY WAS MY FIRST DAY ON THIS DRUG AND IT MADE A DIFFERENCE IN ME INSTANTLY I FEEL SO GOOD THE ANXIETY HAS LIFTED I HOPE IT STAYS THAT WAY FOR ME . I'M ONLY ON 1MG TO START BUT IT IS WORKING AND THAT'S GOOD FOR ME.

I've been taking Klonopin for only a week now. Kept going to doctors and telling them about my anxiety, they kept prescribing me antidepressants (many of which made me very emotional). Finally I was sent to a psychiatrist who prescribed 1mg Klonopin before bed and 50mg Pristiq every morning for the depression side of it. The Klonopin has been incredible. Makes me feel normal, much like I felt several years ago before all of the anxiety developed!! As for the Pristiq, I can't tell anything yet but I'll give it a while....

WOAH. Klonopin works wonders for me. I have been on a number of anti-depressants for my ANXIETY... before I got on klonopin because the psychiatrists wouldn't let me go on anything like klonopin because it can be habit forming. All the anti-depressants I was ever on screwed me up in the head so badly that they all, in some way, made me some kind of crazy. I would be insane, turn into a raving lunatic, become extremely depressed to the point I could not stand being awake so i constantly slept. All these weird racing thoughts consumed me. Than I finally found a wonderful doctor who prescribed me klonopin and MAN! It makes me feel soooooo soooo calm.... feels like im floating on clouds. No more being nervous. NO more anxiety. =) I'd recommend it for anyone who becomes nervous and jittery to the point where they can't stand it.

Occasionally take approx. 2 mgs. of the generic form and have experienced the very disturbing side effect of memory loss. A place I visited in reality recently while on Klonopin now seems like it was only a dream. Though the drug helps with anxiety and helps to sleep, the negatives out-weigh any positives.

hum no problems here???????? :)

I only take .5mg twice a day for anxiety. Started taking to help with palpitations and lightheadedness (chronic). Seems to help alot. Just as I started it a head cold settled in, so can't discern if the fatigue is from the cold, the klonopin, or both. Even with the fatigue I feel so much more functional. So very interesting. Bill

seem to be more aggressive, inotlerant of small annoyances. my mind spins and then wonders. all of this is new since i started taking klonopin about 8 months ago. i was a totally healthy twenty-something who now has pre-cancerous cervical lesions. hmmm, I am thinking I will come off the klonopin just in case. my anxiety was never THAT bad.

I take this for Panic Disorder, and have no side effects! I have been on many anti-anxiety drugs, but none have kept me so balanced. I finaly feel normal again!
