"i was prescribed this medication for anxiety because other anxiety medications caused insomnia.  it definitely helps with the irritability i was experiencing.  i sleep well if i take half of a 50mg pill.  unfortunately, when i take a whole pill, i have trouble sleeping.  despite not sleeping well, i usually have more energy and i am more productive the next day when i take a higher dose.  i also noticed that when i&#039;m taking this medication i sometimes have a hard time speaking, words come out jumbled!  overall, this medicine has the least amount of side effects of all the medications i&#039;ve taken for anxiety (no appetite gain, no sexual side effects, no headaches or mood swings)."
