Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to health care magic!

I have read your question and can see that you have taken klonopin along with zoloft and beer.
You are worried that if it is dangerous for you?
I would like to tell you that it dosent look fatal or dangerous.
However, the fear that you are having is due to the anxiety problem that you have.

The best treatment, apart from medicine, in treating psychiatric illnesses is to have a good night time sleep.

Try to sleep in-time unless it is absolutely necessary. Avoid shift working in long run for healthy mind and body.

And as you have taken klonopin and beer as well, you should not drive (to be on the safer side).

Wish you good luck.
Please ask more questions for clarification.
