anxiety
"I am a 47 year old male and within one year I've developed a anxiety disorder.  I work as a controls engineer in the automotive field so stress and tennage kids pushed me to the brink.  The anxiety is up and down now largely due to fear of that weird derealization feeling I get.  Ativan is amazing its able snap me back into a calm and rational  state when the anxiety is at its peak.  I was originally concerned about its dependence but I believe self management can eliminate that.  I am on 5mg of escitalopram but find it really doesn't seem to have any effect.  Hang tough fellow anxiety brothers and sisters... Anxiety Sucks"
