I started to take these yestoday i had 1 40mg tab and omg the come down (couldnt think of another way to explain) was horid i felt worse than i do when i have anxiety issues it wore off after about 5hours and i felt so ruff i dont really want to take it again today i felt as if i had no slept for about 3days and well the effects of lack of sleep are nasty as it is. I was sat around the table last night eating dinner and started to feel panicd was very hard for me as i know i have no need to panic around family and my partner then i come back upstairs and was fine not a problem besides feeling groggy due to tablet worn off.
Anybody else experience the effects when the tablets ware off?

thats weird as one of the things i was worried about was what would happen when i stopped taking it, my doctor told me that its a tablet that you can take and be okay as it only stays in your system for a short period of time as they are not addictive, my doctor said its okay if i do not feel the need to take them everyday as there will be no withdrawel from them, i am on a 40mg course which i have just started, my dad has been on them for years and has forgotton to take them on occassion and has never had the effect you describe

i am not sure how to help, i do know there are some side effects that will happen in the first few days, but these will wear off and tiredness is one them

i would recommed speaking to your doctor, betablockers only help the physical symptoms of anxiety they do not help with the mental issues of anxiety, i hope your doctor explained that
