crazychick...
don't be crazy. Take the dadgum Inderal, Before the diazepam. I use 2 anxiolytics, prn., but actually, daily. I take 2-4 mgs. klonopin, but, when I am having tough physical anxiety yanks (like my heart & lungs are being squeezed from behind by King-Kong), the Inderal (gen. propanolol for me) is the only med that can backslap the physical stuff for me. I prefer it 40-60mgs IR with at least 1 mg. clonazepam.Takes 30 to 60" for full effect, but it's lots safer than the probably 8mgs. I wd. need of klonopin. I began taking Inderal 120SR 7 yrs. ago to help prevent headaches. Didn't help too much w/the pain, til I was dx'd with 3 herniated discs (due to degenerative disc disease). When I changed my lifting lifestyle, exercised more, got a proper psych dx (ADD, anxiety, chronic depression) Lexapro, dexedrine, darvocet and Soma (carisoprodal) were added to the roster, I -finally- felt more energetic, hopeful, and mostly pretty stable for the first time in yrs. the pain meds are prn.

Give the Inderal a consistent go, and try to taper the diazepam if u like. But, u may -need both-. Jst a thought.
