Lybrate-user,
Clonazepam is a benzodiazepine and is prescribed for anxiety but usually dependence occurs if taken for more than 4 weeks.

Hello lybrate-user. I do not find any problem in that but would have been better had you discussed this issue with your trwating physician. What you can do is first stop thinking about it. Go to bed relaxed and only when you feel sleepy. Do not 'try' to sleep but let sleep come to you.in case you have problem you can take clonazepam on as-and-when required basis. Best luck thanks.

Panic attack comes mainly due to underlying anxiety disorder. You should understand your anxiety and it becomes easy for you to manage anxiety and panic attacks. Along with medicines, you need psychotherapy, meditation and breathing. Take care.

Lybrate-user,
The medications olanzapine and Clonazepam are prescribed in low doses if there is a renal impairment under the supervision of a psychiatrist and only when the benefits of taking the medications outweigh the risks. If you have anxiety and depression issues you could review how bad the symptoms are and start cognitive behaviour therapy which does not involve medications. If that helps you and your symptoms reduce then medications can be reduced and stopped by the psychiatrist.

It depends upon the indication for which you are taking clonazepam. If you are taking it for anxiety then first commence the non addcitive long acting antidepressant medicine which also acts as antianxiety before tapering the clonazepam.

You are on too many medications. Well try to find out with your own Psychiatrist what he wishes to prescribe. Weight control can be achieved by reduction of Clomipramine,hopefully and Try Topiramate to control weight.
