I'm on it, and have been since 2007. I find it helps, although to be honest I'm not sure how much it's doing for my anxiety vs just preventing withdrawal. I also have a fairly high tolerance for it, and am very physically dependent on it. If I miss a dose, I get quite ill.
I want off it, but my Dr. doesn't want to change any of my meds, until I'm more stable.
I find seroquel is actually much more effective for anxiety.
