Anxious and Depressed

Hi. I’m a 50 year old male who has dealt with anxiety and depression for over 30 years. The latest has been going on for about a month. I’m a teacher on Christmas Break and am usually ready to tackle all my projects around the house. Well it’s hard for me to even get out of bed. I eventually make myself and even get myself to go for a walk and it helps. It seems my anti depressants have taken time off and I even take a small dose of clonazapam in the morning and at night. I fight to try not to take more. About a month ago I woke up in a panic and felt like I couldn’t breathe. I know I can but it is just very uncomfortable for awhile while I try to take deep breathes but it only makes it worse. This is all I seem to focus on. Just wondering if anyone else has had anything similar happen to them and what have they done. I am going to go see a psychologist on Jan 2 and my primary Dr on Jan 4. Thanks in advance for your help.
