So after myy bad episode with lexapro my gp started me on klonopin. I just took my first dose about an hour ago and currently I'm waiting for the ball to drop or the allergic reaction to happen. I'm having back and forth panic attack and am really scared..I'm at my dads but I'm afraid if something bad happens no one will know. I'm scared. I don't like this at all. Help!?!

Try to think that this one will be okay.

It's hard I know.

You can always go back to your GP if you feel uneasy or worried about your new meds but sometimes you get side effects at the beginning of a new med and they wear off as time goes on. Have you talked to your dad about your worries? I'm sure he will be wanting to support you. You can always post here and we will support you. You can always check out things with your dad if you are concerned and then you can decide if your meds are right for you. You could maybe speak to your pharmacist as well about any side effects you may be experiencing. Good luck I hope the new med works for you xxxx

I actually felt about an hour of calmness last night before I went to sleep. I was scared about an allergic reaction or something but I woke up ok. Groggy but ok. Took my second dose about an hour ago but I'm still ok. Amazing.

I've had bad reactions to different drugs. But this new one I'm on seems ok( I'm crossing fingers,toes,whatever can be crossed!) . I woke up this morning without the dreadful grip of fear in my stomach. Hope you're doing ok xx
