It is better to avoid using them as a self medication. Benzodiazepines r not the mainstay of treatment for depression or anxiety. They r only for short term symptomatic control. U need to have a psychiatrist evaluation. There are other medications and therapies that can help u. Best wishes for speedy recovery
