Taking just etizolam will not cure you it is just for temporary relief you need to be on antidepressant for sometime to manage the illness appropriately.

Etilaam is a benzodiazepine which acts immediately for anxiety. It does not act on the cause of the same. Medication of ssri or snri group are used for the same. It would ideal to consult an astute psychiatrist in person or online and seek remedy.

Hi. Please consult with your doctor before stopping the medication. The dosage should be tapered according to your symptoms. Also consult with a psychologist to help you manage your symptoms without medicines in the long run. It will help prevent relapse and maintain your wellbeing.
