> I am on klonipin for Post Traumatic Stress Syndrom. I just started Friday April 30, 1999. I hope it will work. The doctor explained that I need to have the medication in my bloodstream at all times to avoid panic attacks and anger and depression that follows. Are you familiar with this treatment? So far so good for me. I just increased dose a couple of hours ago. I see my doctor Friday. He will be monitoring me. I actually got taken to a psych hospital Thursday because of panic. I hate this confusion I experience. I hope this medication will calm down my mind Sincerely, Donna
Donna, I know it has been a while since you posted your message. I began having panic attacks about 6 years ago. It came out of no where. My heart would start racing, my head would "spin", I would get a cold sweat and general confusion. Sometimes I would feel detached. My Pysch first prescribed Xanax which calmed everything down pretty quickly. I later had another doctor change the medication to Klonopin. Xanax was a 4 times a day med. Klonopin was a lot easier to live with. I have had very little panic problems since. Mostly sleep panics if I took a nap during the day but that has gone away now. The most recent was a couple of months ago I had a night panic which may have been more of a bad dream/sleep walk than anything. Regardless, I have learned to not be so afraid of panic attacks and have even taken a humorous attitude toward it. When it all first started, I became depressed and very phobic. I very quickly developed a morbid fear of just about everything. That's all history now as I am an actor/writer and am getting my MFA in script and screenwriting at Regent University. It is survivable. I hope this helps you and others. Blessings.
Steve
