Hello, sorry to hear your feeling bad, the diazepam should be helping you soon to calm down, are you on your own in the house? Im also on diazepam at the moment when I feel my anxiety is getting out of control. Are you taking any other medication? :)

Hey you, I have PMd you. :hugs:

So the Cit isn't working yet, glad the Diazapam is helping. Re the addictive bit, yes Diazapam is, but they are fine for immediate short term help. Yes, ask the GP about upping the Cit. I am not on that but my GP put me on Olanzapine, low dose, they keep me calm, and re-train my brain to think logically, and are not addictive. I take 1 x 2.5mg a day, and I have some Diazapam for emergencies. xxx

hiiiiii....im on cit 30mg since the 27th aug...previously on 20mg from the 9th july this year...not hitting as yet....and i feel so so despondent...going to ask maybe for an increase to 40mg on friday....or try something new xxxx

so your meds are not controlling your thoughts...its so awful isnt it...mornings are my worst....evenings i am calm xxxx

i probably like you only take diaz when it is extreme...i have tried to control it...but the last two days blasted nightmare!

i do hope the meds kick in when do you go for a review? xxxx
