Diagnosed with panic disorder 7 yrs ago. On parocen cr 12.5mg twice and lonacen .25mg twice/sometimes once or maybe more than 2 during bad days. It seems general anxiety disorder has also crept in. Have been a moderate marijuana smoker for the past 20 yrs. Sometimes it helps and at times makes it worse. Need to change meds. Pls advise.
