Hi Lisa,
I have panic disorder and take klonopin and xanax prn for it- they work extremely well. Are you saying you feel tired on klonopin? Have you played with the dose? I agree xanax is difficult to take around the clock (although a lot of people do) but prn is perfect. I've tried fish oil (omegabrite) for bipolar disorder- it had no effect on my panic at all. Benzos are the treatment of choice for panic, and klonopin is usually the one indicated. My pdoc who specializes in panic, never prescribes ADs. Hope this helps- judy
