    All I know about it is that it is for seizures and panic attacks, my doctor almost put me on it but he changed his mind.

    I take it. I started to have serious anxiety when I just was diagnosed with vestibular disorder and I was spinning like crazy thinking I’m dying or something but like my heart was fine and every test I did was fine and still am fine. So I went into panic attack mode and they put me on it and it helps level me out. I was finally healing from the vertigo and vestibular stuff then some lady rear ended me and brought me back to where I was when I first got hurt. It’s supposedly addictive but idk about that also I only take half of your dose but sometimes when I first was put on it I’d take 2 cause I was freaking out cause a part of the vertigo was panic and anxiety and it would get out of control. But I also know people who been taking it for years, one being my mother. She was on Xanax for 3 years dropped that like nothing and then 5 years of .5 of clonazepam and she’s okay. She needs it tho, my father died 8 years ago and she was a mess and that is the only stuff that helps her take the edge off. I don’t blame her, it’s better then taking Xanax that stuff is strong. But yeah it helps as a “as needed” type thing but if you need it need it take it. That’s what my friend who take like 2mg per day says. Rather stay calm then be all worked up.

      Also my results are good. It don’t make you sleepy or anything like that. Just get used to it before you go do stuff. Don’t drink on it cause it won’t work

    I’ve been on 1.5 mg twice a day for over a year and it’s helped a lot. Don’t be afraid to take it. You won’t know until you try. I promise the worst result is that you’ll be sleepy that’s it. But it does help a lot. For me mine is so severe it doesn’t take it all away but it certainly makes it more manageable

    I take it as needed and it has helped me so much, at first it made me feel a little sleepy and heavy but not overwhelmingly. I also deal with really bad social anxiety and I was able to go to disney world during very bad dissociation for 5 hours! I have found best results is to take it when I anticipate that something is going to make me anxious. But if I am already really anxious it doesn’t help me as much
