"i have been having anxiety since i was 7-8 years old! i used to take paxil when i was about 18 years old and it helped except for the upset stomach part but then that went away (from paxil) i was 1st prescribed lorazepam when i was i think 20, and have been taking it now for 12 years! love it and only thing i find is i get a dry mouth every now and then but its not so horrible as some of the other ones i&#039;ve taken. i&#039;m just trying to find another medicine now that can stop the attacks."
