Hello

Yes I would say it would work

Have you been prescribed them by your Doctor ?

I would strongly advise you speak to your Doctor about this and they will be able to tell you if it would help you personally , I do know it has helped a lot of people myself included even though they can be addictive so that is why it is always best if you are going to take them to be under your Doctors care while you do

Take Care x

A low dose of diazepam is 2 mg vs. a low dose of xanax is 0.25 mg. I'm not saying these 2 are comparable, just picking out 2 low doses of each and showing they aren't the same or measured the same. Contacting your Dr. or a pharmacist is the best route.

Possibly may help. Each one of us is different as to what we respond to. As long as your doctor is prescribing, it's worth trying. Good Luck dear.
