I am prescribed .25 mg clonazepam to control my anxiety (Dr. Advised to take when required only). Now a days if I fall a sleep in day I could not able to complete my sleep and wake up as frightened and a very scary feeling (like something going to have bad). BT when I come to conscious conditions everything becomes normal and smooth. It doesn't happen in night sleep. What is this?

Hi lybrate-user, You are having anxiety problem. It is not that serious issue that is the reason why doctor has asked you to take only if necessary. I just wanted to know if you working for night shift. If so, that is one of the major reason for you feeling scared and frightened. You may be having some lonely feeling, depressed and having some short bad dreams. These all make you feel like this I wanted to know more about you whether your staying with your friends or family. So that I can help you better. Kindly get back to me either call me or mail me. For now, I wanted you to shift from night to day shift. Tell me how you are feeling. If not get back to me to know what other causes are there. Do not worry. Be cool. Take rest. With regards,
