If this medication has worked for you in the past then I would suggest talking with your doctor about changing your dosage. There may also be other options for other medications as well. Have you had any significant changes that may have contributed to the anxiety coming back? Are you seeing a counselor?

Yes, I'm seeing a doctor.  I taking clonazepam and have been for about a yr. I was on about three different ones before this one.  It works awhile after I have taken it, but I just can't seem to keep them from happening.

Since you are on anxiety medications I am assuming that you are seeing a physician who has ruled out any medical reason for your symptoms. How many medications have you tried for your anxiety? How long have you been on your current medication? It could be that your medication that you are on is not the right match for your chemical makeup. There are many medications that are available and it could be that what you are taking is not the right match for you.

Sorry, I didn't finish my comment before it posted.  Audrey, does this sound like anxiety.  Also, I wake up every morning feeling so badly.  My head feels so weird and my heart starts racing. Then in the afternoons I go thru what I stated in the above post.  I'm taking anxiety medicine, but I still deal with this.  What am I doing wrong?                                  

Erhyzzajhlym,
I too pray to God all the time.  I don't know why he will not take this away from me.  I feel bad because it doesn't seem to help me to pray.

My head feels so strange and I feel like I can't stand being in my body.  I guess it's anxiety, but I've had it every day for a yr and a half.

Anxiety is a magnified response of the normal fight or flight response that our body has to protect us from harm. All of the symptoms that you are listing sound like anxiety. The numbness that you are experiencing are your body's  response to oxygen depletion in your extremities. When you become anxious it is common to not breathe properly and deplete your oxygen saturation. Your body will send your oxygen to your brain and vital organs to accommodate for the depletion of oxygen thus making your extremities tingly. One of the best ways to "beat" or manage anxiety is to not feed it. Face your fears head on and it will lessen the fear. If you have not seen your doctor for these symptoms I would suggest doing so. There are many medications and treatments for anxiety. Stay positive
