My drs taking me off Xanax bc he says it only last 4 hrs a day and that I need to be on something that lasts longer. He recently put me on klonopin but it feels like it’s doing the opposite effect on me?! My system is weird like that. I’m curious what do most of y’all take for anxiety??

I have been on Depakote name brand for 25yrs now. And suddenly we just can’t get it anymore. I tried generic but that didn’t work went from 3yr no seizures to 3 seizures per day.
