"experienced a major, full-blown panic attack (due to stress and agoraphobia) while out with a friend. she offered librium, two 5mg capsules. the hysteria subsided fairly quickly, but i could not stop crying, &amp; could not breathe. two more librium stabilised me completely. when i told my doctor, she &quot;told&quot; me rather than asking me that i slept for the remainder of that day. nooooo....i&#039;ve been telling her for months that it takes high doses of 4 different meds for me to sleep. one of those is klonopin. for 10 years i was prescribed 6mg at bedtime. new doc came in, cut me down to 4mg, upsetting my balance, making falling asleep a chore. i hope she will take into account the librium&#039;so positive effect."
