"i have been on this medication for about 4 months now. when i first started taking it, it knocked me out hard and when i woke up i could barely walk straight. i was so dizzy and off balance it scared me. my doctor told me that it is normal and to just stick through it. i felt better the 2nd and 3rd month, while it didn&rsquo;t take away my panic/anxiety disorder it did help a little bit. now i&rsquo;m on month 4, i have been having panic attacks in the middle of the night. i get weird panic attacks which shows in uncomfortable physical symptoms. i am now going back to the doctor to see if there is anything else i can do to improve or change my medication. this did help me get off xanax 0.25-0.5 mg for 3 months but now i need it again occasionally."
