though more information is needed, yes it does control anxiety. Escitalopram belongs to a class called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI) which are the drug of choice for anxiety disorders.

Thank you for your question. Yes it will help, but long term use of clonazepam is not advisable as it may cause dependence. Kindly instant consult for detailed help.
