Marsha,
Do you think the Klonopin works better than the Zyprexia for the anxiety/panic? Especially since the Klonopin has longer acting side effects? I take either perphenazine or Klonopin for about the same thing as you. It is really a subjective decision each time I think I need one of them, which would be the best to take. For times I am very panicky or extreme anxiety, like when I cannot stop crying or want to pound my head into a wall, literally, I find perphenazine (in your case Zyprexia) to be fast acting and short lived. For when I am anxious in a general way, a feeling that was not sudden and fierce I take Klonopin because it calms me down and lasts longer which is what I need when the anxiety is something that I am living with as opposed to going through. Not sure if this scenario would work for you. How do you decide which one to take for what?
