I'm not sure what klonopin is or what it does.?.
If you eventually decide you don't like the seroquel; depakote is also commonly used to treat anxiety. These two pdrugs are the only ones that I have experience with. Depakote may help, either alone or with the seroquel. Depakote has not caused any drowsiness at all for me. You said you had a bottle of it at home. Have you ever tried it?
Maybe you could make a list on paper to bring to your doctor outlining three things:
1) the symptoms you wish to eleviate (maybe rank them from the most severe to the least?)
2)Drugs that are PROVEN not to work for you, perhaps also stating what their actual effect was (did they make a certain symptom worse, no effect at all, etc)
3)and the drugs that people here have recommended, listing each drug with your desired result/reason for taking it. Keeping this list list reasonably short may help it be taken more seriously.
Just some thoughts. Hang in there, Spriggy.
