Anyone tried both Xanax and klonopin? Not saying at the same time. Xanax really does nothing for me. Thinking about asking to try klonopin instead.

Not together but have experience with both. I have been taking .5mg if Klonopin daily for many years and can take an additional.5 if anxiety “breaks through.” Xanax made me sleepy and seems better for panic attacks. It’s definitely more short acting than Klonopin. I find Klonopin helps me manage generalized anxiety all day. Longer acting.

@PWC1 - yeah. Not saying together, but more wondering which may work best for me. Xanax barely touches my anxiety.

I would appreciate any insight on management-side employment law in Dallas. I am a MLA at a large firm in LA pondering a move for financial/family reasons, but it doesn't seem like there are many open positions in DFW and I'm wondering if this area of the law is just not robust in Texas.

Has anyone dealt with parents that never listens to what you actually need? All I need is support and empathy, but they always hand me oranges when I ask (specifically for apples). They think they are doing their best to care for me. But when I explain that I’m not happy at work and all they do is shame me for not being strong or smart enough for it. They ignore me when I keep coming out to them as gay (had to do it multiple times), and still keeping asking me to get a bf. I’m so bottled and mad
