Sleeping issues and general fear

Question

Asked for Male, 30 Years

I was on 12.5 mg paroxetine CR and clonazepam 0.5 mg for General Anxiety Disorder. My anxiety led to having panic attacks when I am far off my home to the thought of fear of losing control. Also I had trouble sleeping as the sleep was not sound after taking clonazepam. Currently my doctor has switched me to zolpidem 5 mg. I have been taking it from 2-3 days in place of clonazepam. Is paroxetine and zolpidem the right combination?
