Anxiety
"I am a middle aged man, who has had anxiety my whole life. In addition, I have a very stressful job. About three years ago, my wife convinced me to see a doctor. I had never taken any sort of anti-anxiety medication previously. The doctor prescribed Klonopin, but was very adamant about taking it only as needed. The prescription says 1mg, twice a day. But I only take, on average,  two pills a week, when I&#039;m really stressed. As many people here have said, it started out great, then faded with time. Although it definitely helps; it&#039;s not pleasant. It&#039;s almost as if it makes me so sleepy, I&#039;m too tired to be stressed. Two years ago, I would have given it a 9. I still recommend it. Other than sleepiness, I have no other adverse effects."
