Hi skeksi, it helps in the respect that it slows me down, it takes the edge off panic, & i feel my thinking/reactions are slower, but when i took it before, for the 2 years its effects seem to where off over time, i struggle with my thoughts, i just want to be able to turn my thinking off, or at least try & get a hold on it, i'm here, but not really here, still feel i'm stuck in a different time, & time is distorted, the edge has been taken off it, & replaced with tiredness, i feel so irritable, my avoidance & the anger is still the same, i want to be able to function, but just blot everything out....
