Brief Answer:
It is not fatal dose, but you have taken higher dose of Clonazepam.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

You have taken Oxycodein and Soma doses according to guideline and not in excess amount.

But you have taken high dose of Clonazepam. For anxiety issue such high dose is not advisable. You are feeling sleepy because of action of clonazepam.

If you are feeling more drowsiness, slowed breathing, weak reflexes, lack of coordination, confusion then you should consult your doctor. Your doctor will give you antidote if needed.

I suggest you to consult your doctor once as you have taken higher dose of Clonazepam.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
