I have been taking 1mg when need during the day for anxiety.
I was on Klonopin 1mg anxiety/2mg at night, it worked ok, but it wasnt so harsh on how i feel. In a sense, i was calm and felt relieved, in a way a "release" but still later on it did not stop panic attacks.
Ativan seems to calm but make my mood worse, at work, when i'm "stinge stressed", at work, when i am overloaded, it makes me roll my eyes and just go on auto-pilot, miserably.
Klonopin did calm me down and make some dysphoria go away (anxiety). I felt better, and didnt seemed bothered.
I think i am going to ask to return to Klono, but it worked when it wanted to. Complications that just cause more stress, does any one know what to do?

Hmmm... see I've been thinking I have the opposite problem where Ativan worked better for me than Klonopin. Wanna just trade meds? LOL (just kidding everyone- no illegal drug solicitation going on, don't worry!).
I know benzo's do have different effects so it's possible that the Klonopin worked better for you. It has a longer half life so that might be the difference.

i take 2 mgs klonopin daily---and sometimes i think that it makes me a bit irritable, but to me its worth it since it does help my anxiety and ocd
