hi sir, welcome to health care magic,I could certainly understand your concern about  the symptoms that your  son facing.It is  advisable to start him on klonopin for sleep and anxiety.please provide some more details about jerky movements and panic attacks whether he has breathlessness symptoms or hyperventilation attacks associated with chest discomfort ? fear of having another attack? etc. Buspirone  is definitely helpful  to treat his anxiety and panic attacks instead of Benadryl, as it is shortacting anti anxiety medication when compared to the clonazepam .It definitely works well for his anxiety so I can prescribe your son to take in the morning time, as it may have some sleep disturbances.Consult your  psychiatrist regarding drug interactions with the any  Other Drugs he is on currently.please post your further questions if any, Iwill always be available to answer them.Thank you.
