anyone having problems with clozapam

i've been on clonazepam for 2 1/2 month i'm currently on 2/2mg at night and 2/2mg in the morning plus serequel, i'm still having problems with excessive worrying/thoughts, panic attacks and agitation and mood swings. i've told my doctor this but he insist on keeping me on it. why? whats a better med for panic attacks. because clonazepam only help with my mood swings and agitation.

thanks, hopefully this new doc knows more than the resident i see now, he's(the new doc) is my daughter doc and we got along really well and he notice some things right away with me and offer to be my doc, so hopeful this old timer can help me. i told the new doc that i wasn't getting any relief and he want me to call him today and up my seroquel to i believe he said 400mg i'm a college student that's not going to work. also i haven't been diagnois yet; seriously i've asked about 6 times maybe bipolar II, some form of depression still yet to determine, but no to the panic attacks because they happen in control situation like gathering, math class, going over brigdes. and get this it can't be panic because i'm not scared to leave my home. if i had the choice to stay home believe me i would its embarrassing!! also is Imipramine related to amitriptaline i didn't do good on that either. for some reason i don't respond well to antidepressant they drive me nut and make me very weird and crish if thats a word. I REALLY appreciate all you guys feed back i'm so confused right now i'm becoming more violent and agitated, anxious, panicky. i just want this all to stop so i continue on with normal life what ever that use to be i want it back. any feed back is sooo needed

I take 100mg of zoloft and .50mg of clonazepam for my panic attacks.  When I first started having them, all my doctor prescribed was clonazepam.  But I went back to him a couple of months later because that wasn't working by itself.  He started me on 25mg of zoloft (sertraline) and I've worked up to 100mg.  That seems to have done the trick.  You should ask your doctor about trying zoloft w/ clonazepam.
