A benzodiazepine medication called lonazep MD 0.5 mg may occasionally make some people feel depressed, drowsy, emotionally dull, dependent, or worsen their depression, especially if used frequently. Because withdrawal symptoms can happen, don't quit abruptly. The best solution will depend on your symptoms and medical history. Other anxiety medications, such as SSRIs, buspirone, therapy, relaxation techniques, sleep improvement, and exercise, may be less habit-forming for long-term use. The majority of over-the-counter GABA supplements are not very effective, and their capacity to pass the blood-brain barrier is restricted. In order to safely modify your treatment, please talk to your psychiatrist about your symptoms, particularly if you are feeling gloomy, emotionally numb, or losing interest in day-to-day activities.
