Melatonin for anxiety?

This past week I started popping melatonins during the day to try to deal with what is bordering on panic disorder. They don't work all that well, but maybe I am not taking enough. The most I've taken at one time is 3 mg. I am just trying to get through the day in my last week on the job. I do have insomnia and have been taking melatonin PLUS Lunesta at night. I wake up after two hours with both.

Anyway, I am seeing my psychiatrist tomorrow, and I am going to BEG for Klonopin just to get through this last week - and then never do a job like this again. That and join Toastmasters to overcome fear of speaking in front of others. I don't know why this is getting to me so much. I've felt competent in other jobs and never dealt with this except for 30 years ago when I could not sit in an office with the door shut. I thought I was beyond this.
