"i have general and social anxiety along with paranoia and panic attacks. i am on the max dose of 2mg 3 times per day. i usually switch between this medicine with xanax to slow tolerance, however this is always an issue. this medicine allows me to do things and be me that i normally wouldn&#039;t be able to. however, it does build tolerance fast, causes short-term memory loss, and more aggressive panic attacks if a dose is missed. it is also extremely psychologically and physically addicting and can take your brain over a year to start creating gaba again on its own, which is what this medications primary role replaces."
