"i cannot speak highly enough of this medication. i have had general anxiety for as long as i remember. i have always had a fast heartbeat (a physiological symptom of my anxiety), regularly got palpitations randomly, i often had skipped and missed heartbeats which freaked me out, far more often i believe than the general population. after trying ssri&#039;s and benzo&#039;s i asked my dr for this medicine after doing some research. well i cannot believe it, i feel calm, nothing panics me. it is not addictive like other first line treatments for anxiety. my heart does not race randomly, even the skipped beats i used to get numerous times a day have all but gone. in my opinion if you have anxiety, this should be the first port of call. its changed my life."
