Have you tried Klonopin (Clonazepam)? I only 0.5 mg daily, but it helps so much. And it is very mild, not overwhelming. I was on 1 mg., and that was very mild also, but took the anxiety away.

Just left emergency room and they prescribed me with this! So much better.
Please be very careful with Klonipam(sp) - several years ago I was hospitalized for depression and had to go through withdrawal from anxiety medication because I had been addicted after taking it for years- under the supervision of my psychiatrist. I visited this doctor after my 3 day hospital stay and he simply said “oh well you weren’t even on the maximum dose!” It was a terrible withdrawal that I wouldn’t wish on anyone. I am on a cocktail of other medications (from a different doctor) that are non addictive and manage my depression and anxiety. I’ve gained some non-medicinal tools to control my anxiety such as yoga and meditation.

I take that too. Do you ever trouble sleeping ? I have severe insomnia and have to take something too.
