Guest guest Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 You can try pamelor for your panic attacks and anxiety. it works much like xanax. Marti Boguski wrote: HI , Jeanne has a good point about asking your doctor about Klonopin. I take the generic, clonazepam, every day. Xanax is best for a quick " fix " when you are in the middle of a panic attack, but clonazepam can keep them from happening. It is a different type of drug. I would definitely ask about it since you seem to have panic attacks often.

This will curb the anxiety and will help to calm you down some. You can't put it off, because as you said, you get panicky, and that just makes it all worse. Also, if Xanax doesn't seem to work that well, you might consider asking your doctor to switch to Klonopin. This basically does the same thing, but I was told that the affects last longer than the Xanax does. Just a thought. And please don't beat yourself up for ruining New Year's Eve. It's not your fault. You didn't ask for this. If having family parties is too much for you, then don't have them anymore until you can handle them. I wish you a happy new year and hopefully a less painful one as well.
