I recently got prescribed clonazepam (Klonopin) and take it as needed for panic attacks and such. It’s crazy how well it works, but HOW does it work??

As others have said, benzo addiction is rough. Take them consistently enough and you won’t be able to sleep without them, and you won’t be able to calm down without them. Withdrawals can keep you awake for days with no relief. It’s not too dissimilar to drinking alcohol for anxiety in terms of the withdrawals you’ll face since the end result is chemically similar.
I’d suggest you use the medication when necessary, but look for non-chemical ways to cope with your anxiety in the long run.
