"i have very severe anxiety that has landed me in the er plenty of times before i was diagnosed with being in an &quot;anxiety state&quot;. my first medication was ativan and i loved it but they switched me to 5mg valium. i can function more on valium. i take 1 during an attack and i&#039;m calm for 5-6 days. i get very relaxed and i sleep great! so far i really like it. it says no refills on my bottle so after i go through the 19 pills i have left idk what they&#039;ll have me take. so i&#039;m with a  therapist for now that i meet with once a week for now."
