I'm sorry you're going through this, RxQueen. Despite being a recovering alcoholic, my pdoc prescribes klonopin for anxiety, to be taken as needed (I suffer from anxiety, too). He says, however, that the government is really scrutinizing how pdocs prescribe benzos these days. I wish yours could provide something that works, but won't get you further hooked. I think many pdocs are starting to feel their hands are tied. Keep us posted...Let us know how you're feeling. It sometimes helps to have a place to vent.
