"this has been the only medication that has completely put a stop to my severe social anxiety/panic attacks. i&#039;ve been on it for about a week. i am on .5 mg twice a day and i am able to actually leave my house and get stuff done without that cloud of anxiety over my head. about and hour to kick in and it lasts me usually 6 hours. then i take another around 3pm. if i find it hard to sleep i take a 3rd one right before bed and snooze away like a baby. never have i been able to wake before 7am with no anxiety and energy for the day. i have had no side effects and i am very sensitive to medication. i have no plans of stopping because this med changed my life in just one day"
