yes, I used to take it in situations my anxiety was worse and it made me feel calmer. I haven't taken it since about 6 weeks on fluoxetine because my anxiety is no llonger a problem.

I'm not sure what atvian is. Yes I could do everything on it. It definitely works to relieve anxiety symptoms

Ive taken it at the very beginning of starting prozac, but no longer use it. Its less addictive than benzo drugs and safer as well. I was prescribed 10 mg up to 3 times a day, but never used it more than 1 time per day.... most of the time i cut the pill in half and took 5 mg and it worked very well for me...... i had no side effects whatsoever from it.
