A member asked:
What's a reasonable bzd to consider for a pt (me) on 2.5 mg of klonipin for 6 months and relief from generalized and acute anxiety/panic not working?

Not benzo alone: I would not recommend a benzodiazepine for long-term anxiety, although it can help from time to time. You need to see a psychiatrist for comprehensive evaluation for best recommendations in your case. Antidepressants that are not habit forming but do have anti-anxiety effects can be very helpful. Also mindfulness-based cbt provides long-term benefits that out-last meds over time.
