Anxiety
"I was prescribed this medicine for panic attacks, anxiety and difficulty falling asleep.  I initially started with Xanax, but Clonazepam was offered as a better, longer-acting, less habit-forming alternative. It has been very helpful to me. I am a big person (250lbs), and was prescribed 1/2-1 mg as needed. I&#039;ve taken one almost every night during this rough patch (3 weeks). It takes a good hour or so for it to kick in for me, but when it does, I get drowsy and get a good night sleep. 1/2 pill didn&#039;t do too much for me, though. 1 does well, and 1.5 seems even better."
