Yeah I have this with depression, but it has lasted for many months.

I tried Klonopin and it worked for a while but I couldn't take it with me when I was traveling, so I just had to live with it, which was very hard.

I think my seroquel is starting to work because my anxiety has been getting lower over the past several days. I've been on 350 Seroquel for a month and I think it's starting to work.

A med adjustment is probably in order as a longer term solution for you. That, and CBT coping techniques like cold water on the face (or ice cubes), challenging thoughts, opposite action, etc.
