I think I was given sugarpills for anxiety once. It was before lumbar puncture, and whatever was in them did absolutely nothing. I had one of the worst panic attacks I've ever had as they stuck that needle in me. I was heaving, shaking, sweating, almost blacking out, while two nurses held me still.
It didn't even hurt that much. I just have a fear of medical prosedures that I can't see happening.
It was upposed to be Valium, btw.

@hiisikoloart@writing.exchange I can't speak to the medical part of that, the use of Valium for acute anxiety. I'm sorry you didn't get what you needed!
