Ethansmom Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Which one do you prefer for anxiety and panic disorder? I feel like they work differently. Klonopin is more calming, however the anxious thought are there. Xanax is like a chill pill that does take away a lot of the angst. I have both. I have been on klonopin 2MG for 1 year and a half now and it doesn't work the same as Xanax. It lasts longer though and makes me tired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notloki Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Easy. Xanax kicks in quickly so it is best for as needed use. Klonopin takes an hour to start working, it is better suited for all the time use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethansmom Posted June 6, 2018 Author Share Posted June 6, 2018 I agree. Klonopin is for longer term use. I'm hoping my doctor will just let me stay on that for awhile, until I keep practicing my coping strategies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
