"i wish i knew the panic i felt was something that i could calm with a single pill. diazepam works great by just making you feel mellow and relaxed. i take 2mg here and there. my doctor prescribes it when i go through these severe panic episodes where i can&#039;t sleep and i become consumed with doom. diazepam helps to rationalise things and makes me feel like its not the end of the world. i wish one day i wont have to take it but for now i am grateful for it."
