PCS Mikey,
Did you take the Klonopin (clonazepam) after the start of the panic attack or daily to prevent the panic attacks?
For me, taking Klonopin daily did not help prevent the worst panic attacks. Taking propanolol ( a blood pressure med) immediately upon the start of a severe panic attack was very effective. If I was expecting a seriously stressful situation that may trigger a panic attack, I took the propanolol or Atenolol ahead of time.
By not medicating for panic attacks, I developed much better habits for avoiding them and limiting their intensity if they did rear their ugly head.
