I took 2mg diazepam to go shopping (highly anxiety provoking situation for me). It didn't do anything and I still felt very severe anxiety/borderline panic the whole time and had to leave cause it was too much. Do I need a higher dose?
I'm taking an SSRI but 11 weeks on it and its not helping much at all but I have to stay on it for three more weeks due to an upcoming occasion so will only be taking diazepam for the next 3 weeks.
I used to take 1mg-2mg when I had more moderate anxiety levels and didn't do anything then either it was more a placebo and comfort of knowing I had it. I hadn't taken it in four months when I took it today.
Also, how long does it take for diazepam to kick in for you guys?
