I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. For prescription you have to visit a Psychiatrist in person. The reason of sudden onset anxiety and panic was abrupt stoppage of Clonazepam which you were taking since long. Sudden stoppage results in withdrawal symptoms in form of restlessness, panic, insomnia and in severe cases trembling, seizures and even coma. Most likely you had one episode of seizure which resulted in symptoms. Please find a psychiatrist and take proper treatment. Gradual dose tapering can be done which should help in easing the withdrawal. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. </s>
