I see on your profile that you have Bipolar Disorder. For many people with Bipolar Disorder (including me) anti-depressants can make anxiety much worse. Lexapro had that effect on me.

Stelazine is an old anti-psychotic which is FDA approved for treating acute anxiety and doesn't make me too drowsy when I take it. As others have said, you could try taking your Klonopin during the day instead of at bedtime. You could also try replacing or supplementing the Geodon with one of the AAPs that's more aggressively effective against anxiety, like Seroquel or Zyprexa.
