"don&#039;t listen to any of the negative comments in regards to this medicine.  i currently take 30mg at night.  it helps with anxiety during the day and does keep u asleep at night.  no real side effects with this medication.  of course it is a sedative so u r bound to be a bit sleepy at times but honestly it&#039;s not bad.  more like calm then groggy.  only changes i found in myself since taking this medication is i find i don&#039;t have a deep sleep.  seems to be more like a light sleep with dreams but it&#039;s still restful and i don&#039;t regret this medication at all it&#039;s been fantastic.  people say u gain weight on it but thats not true for everyone.  i didn&#039;t find it made me hungry.  no different then usual."
