I went to the doctors to say my asthma was getting increasingly worse and my doctor seemed to think it was actually anxiety causing the issue.
At first I was unsure but she prescribed me a small dose of diazepam for over 5 days to see what happened, and it's honestly made a huge difference.
I have been stressed for so long and it made me feel almost like myself. I felt much calmer (no outbursts) and I actually got jobs done around the house instead of sitting there for hours on end wasting my day then complaining I'm exhausted.
What has your experience of this been?
What dose were you on and how long did you use them for?
From what I've read they're addictive so can't be used long term which is a shame.
I tried getting in at the doctors first thing today but no luck and I feel horrendous.
I ran out of them on Saturday and not having them has really made me realise how much better they have made me feel.
