Question: Can you list the best effective fast acting only to take for emergency panic attacks
Preferably an uncommon benzodiasipine that is very effective and fast active I don't usually take my benzodiasipine as two or three times daily as prescribed only when I need them otherwise they just make me feel down and I don't want to feel depressed.
