> Tell me about Klonopin. How is this the same or different than Neurontin?
Quite different. Although both are used sometimes as mood stabilizers for bpd.
"Is Klonopin a benzo or antiseisure [sic] med?"
It is both
What are side effects and does it help with falling asleep at night?
Side effects are similar to other benzos: drowsiness, decreased attention span, etc.
Will it make you drowsy during the day and is there weight gain? I have panic attacks and depression how does it work on these?
Klonopin is excellent for panic attacks; it works quickly and lasts a long time. Klonopin can be of great use in depression that is aggravated by anxiety. But there is anecdotal evidence that Klonopin may *cause* depression in some people--but this is rare I think.
