Good for Panic Attacks
Clonazepam

DOSE:
.5 mg oral Pharms - Clonazepam (daily)
BODY WEIGHT: 180 lb
My doctor prescribed this for panic atacks which I've had for awhile now. I tried Valium in the past but found it wasent that effective for panic attacks, better for general stress or anxiety. When I first started clonazepam I really felt the side effects for the first few days, sleepiness, slurred speach and a general feeling like being drunk. After a few days these side effects started to wear off and I could function more normally. As for the panic attacks, it really helped to stop them or at least put a cap on them when they come on and my anxiety level in general is much lower now. The only bad thing I could see with this type of drug is if the person keeps uping the dosage to feel the euphoria from it all the time because the body seems to develop a tolerance to that quickly. I've found I have to increase the dosage a little after awhile to keep in effective but no more than 1 or 2mg, like I said it's potent stuff.
