Yes I meant to say that I also take xanax, 2mg or less. Thanks for your answer, Rob. I have been quite worried about the morning stuff. I'm glad it is helping you!
Val> Do you take a benzo now for anxiety? EMSAM has given me energy, made me sharper more alert, but I was already getting anxiety relief from klonopin. I don't really know how much it has helped specifically for anxiety, but it's not making it worse.
