Since I began menopause twelve years ago I have NOT slept through the night, always wake at the two hour mark. I do not take this drug every night for fear of dependency but when I require a good night sleep I will take which allows me to have a good nite sleep with NO side effects next say (lethargic, etc.)

I was prescribed this medication to deal with sudden panic episodes of severe anxiety. Upon taking it I felt little to no difference in my level of anxiety. What I did notice was a severe depression that set in and a feeling of sadness. I would rather feel scared than as sad as it made me.

It is extremely helpful for alcohol withdrawal and is also good for getting restful sleep. But like alcohol, it can become addictive and has its own withdrawel symptoms. It has been a much safer and more effective remedy for anxiety for me than alcohol.

Immediate help from withdraw symptoms. I would have died if it wasn't for this drug.
