My anxiety has not been good daily since two weeks ago. I had an anxiety attack two weeks ago in the morning where I was sweating, shaky hands like I was loosing control. It only lasted a few minutes that I took a klonopin and went to lie down. But now I fear every day when I feel a hot flash is incoming or feels like i'm getting sweaty that I would have an anxiety attack. I heard that klonopin could make you anxious and I have taken almost a klonopin every day of this past two weeks because I couldn't manage my anxiety and felt like dying. I cannot call my doctor now because my visit from December was not covered by my insurance since it was terminated. I'm waiting to get a refund from my college to pay the debt and hopefully they would still allow me to go. This anxiety reminds of me of my past a few years ago where I couldn't control and before SSRI.
I'm currently taking Fluoxetine 30mg & Klonopin.

Hey @made08
I was wondering if you were male or female and how old you were?

I am so sorry you are suffering from this. I can imagine it must be terrible. I am not sure if this is a fair comparison but I suffer from OCD and sometimes when I have ruminating thoughts the anxiety kicks in and it is awful. Do you know if there are triggers? Take care of yourself and do what you need to do to feel better.

Update: I was able to fix my bill with the doctor office. I can make small payments until it clears out and then I told my doctor about my anxiety and she gave me a refill for my Fluoxetine and wants me to see a therapist. I have contacted a few, but I need someone to take me. I'm surprised she didn't increased my dosage.

I'm glad you can see your doctor, and I hope you can see a therapist and get some coping strategies for the anxiety. Have you ever tried support groups? I go to a depression support group, and I find it helpful.

dbsalliance.org and nami.org have lists of support groups.
