I used to be on SSRIs but now take Xanax only which is good for anxiety and insomnia. The benzos are not that great for depression. My pdoc says Klonopin tends towards depressing its user so he prescribes Xanax [generic which is alazopram] and it works well for me. I usually take .5 at night as my anxiety is much better. I have no side effects as I did with the antidepressants, however, I am no longer depressed much. I am out of the black hole so I just use Alazopram [Xanax]. It's best for anxiety for many people.
