"i have suffered from anxiety for 20 years on and off, and mostly when i drive or when i&#039;m a passenger. i have always been afraid of medicine even tylenol. i finally broke down and saw a doctor and she put me on paxil. for a week i could not sleep for more than an hour at a time and i could not eat and had dry mouth. i had to force bananas and apples down with water and was getting sick from not sleeping and eating and my anxiety was non stop.
i stopped taking the medicine and went to the hospital; and he gave me a shot of clonazepam and i went home and felt great and ate great that night, and slept great.
my doctor prescribed it for me at 0.5 mg twice a day or whenever needed. i take 1/2 a pill a day and my life is great. no anxiety, no side effects."
