I don’t know which one but something like klonopin, Ativan, Valium, etc I think taken only 8 times a month for awful panic attacks could be much better for me then taking an anxiety medication every single day.

Especially because my baseline anxiety can be managed with therapy techniques. I just have trouble with panic attacks so having benzos would be great. My propranolol works great on my body so I take it for panic attacks where physical anxiety is more present. But I need something that works for my mind too.

Taking typical anxiety medications have DAILY side effects like:

• Brain fog

• Tiredness

• Insomnia

• Memory problems

• Excessive sweating (I’m already dehydrated with POTS)

• Sexual dysfunction

• Emotional Apathy

I know that benzo have some of these effects but they typically only last as long as it’s affecting you correct? I’m hoping taking them less than 8x a month will prevent daily issues
