Klonopin has been the only drug to help my GAD. I am on a low dose (.5mg twice a day, sometimes adding an extra .25mg midday). My dosage has not changed in 10 months and I still get the same effect. My anxiety is mostly under control, I feel more even and have less mental confusion and brain overload. It did cause sedation at first, which resolved after about a week or 10 days. I have some mild short term memory problems, but no other SE's at all. It does help with racing thoughts of GAD, but not as well as Celexa. However ALL the drugs (SSRI's and Buspar, Moclobemide and Remeron) I've been on have not resolved my anxiety and gave me awful side effects.
Good experience overall. Good luck!
