Love this medicine. It relaxes you so you can not possibly feel anxiety. The first time I took a whole one I thought I was going to pass out and could hardly walk - so be careful. It will make you sleepy so use caution when taking during the day. It can also help you sleep when you can't stop thinking. I highly recommend it for occasional use but not for every day.

This medicine has helped me with my social anxiety tremendously. Before, I would sit at home on the computer all the time, too afraid to really do anything. I skipped school all the time because I was too nervous. Now I'm going to college, making friends, etc. I still get nervous, but not nearly as bad as it once was. This medicine helps me live.

Have been taking for a few months now with great results. Little dosage changing. I tried SSRI's and other medications without much luck other than feeling down or drained. Used Trazadone for sleep, I was living like a zombie. With Xanax the sedation wore off after roughly 5-10 days which was the only thing I can complain off. I have been doing better at school, less worrisome tics, better sleep instead of waking up screaming. Longer acting was better for me than a rollercoaster ride of taking a lorazapam or xanax (same dose worked wonderfully for 6 years) and now I just found that this time of my life, I needed something long-acting that I wouldn't have to think about my anxiety or worry about it anymore.
