"prescribed 25mg for gad. it didn&#039;t do anything so i requested an upped dose. they prescribed me 50mg and it still did nothing. i have tried benadryl, lemon balm and so many other things thag never worked. i am on xanax now but it still really doesn&#039;t do much. i am on a 0.5dose and it works more maybe 30min and not very well."
