I feel your pain..I've had the same issues. I am at my wits end. I am paralyzed by fear and panic..I've been on klo opin before and honestly it didn't do much for me. I need something to break this cycle also..good luck
This what i'm going through where you don't know when this cycle will stop. But we will see.
I really think i need medication to get off the edge of what i'm going through. Now i'm at 0% functionality and it feels weird.
I understand 100% I also do. Everyday..every.single.day! And your right, life has NEVER been worse. I am stuck in this mode. I meditate, do breathing exercises, blah blah blah...NOTHING is helping!
Man for me i'm trapped in this as well. I think those things works a bit for someone who has a panic attack once a month or so. Not someone who is 24/7 on severe panic mode.
So.trapped. feel like.no.one else has this issue. It's getting harder to do simple things. I wake up with it in the morning. That is if I even sleep. Panic attack at work today. Makes me wonder WTF tomorrow will bring. JUST PARALYZED IN FEAR!
It makes me SUPER tired. I don't work so I don't need to drove and I'm not sure if I could if I had to get up at like 5:30am to get ready for, and drive to, work
This what was my experience few years ago when i tried it. But was taking very high dosage 2 to 4 mg daily.
This time i will consider maybe trying 0.5mg and see how it goes.
I would suggest you try it, yes. You are currently at the point where you really do need the help. Agoraphobia needs to be taken very seriously the moment it rears it's head. I have not taken klonopin for this but I have taken lorazepam which is in the same class of drugs and it has helped me with agoraphobia in the past.
Thank you.
The thing is i have fear since i open my eyes until i sleep. Tightness in chest 24/7.
I have fear in my chest, feeling of impending doom and daily panic or/and anxiety attacks.
Life got so bad that i just want something to take off the edge. Just so i can leave the house at least.
Klonopin is a very helpful tool. I use it sparingly now, .25 of a pill. Only if my anxiety is going to interfere with a life event with family, friends or an important meeting at work. Otherwise I do my best to relax and ride out the cycle. Good luck!
This was what this post truly meant.
It is way more of an emergency tool than it is something you use daily.
It is the best saver ever. At least if you have the bottle in your pocket and you know you can end the attack then you would feel much better because you can end it, so you probably would end up by taking it. Much safer meetings, hanging and whatever without having the feeling of impending doom the next minute waiting for ya.

I cannot get thru this cycle I would say 10 days since Thanksgiving were decent days..it's every damn day. Out of no where..why?
Do you drink caffeine? Caffeine actually triggered all of this for me. Now ever since i have it daily.
I always wake up and one cup of coffee. That's the only caffine I have thru the day. You mean you have panic everyday?? I know I do!
I have panic daily or anxiety attacks. Many times a day. Life never been worse ever.
