"best med for those who suffer from constant anxiety. it helps me a lot with my social anxiety in particular. i take 1 mg 3x daily. been on that dosage for 2 years now. have had no bad side effects. this drug has been a lifesaver for me. i&#039;ve had anxiety for as long as i can remember. i think i will probably be on this med for life. never stop taking it cold turkey or you will go through a nasty withdrawal. it happened to me once several years ago when the doctor suddenly had me stop it with no warning or taper schedule.  it&#039;s best to slowly taper off."
