I've been taking .5mg of lorazepam in the a.m. Have been on it for about 8 years along with mirtzipine 30mg that I had started that one 14 years ago. I had gone down to 15 mg of the mirtazapine back in 2008. Had been doing well. Then a few months ago started feel I g depression and anxiety. Was started on 30mg back in August first week. Here it is 2 months and I still feel the same. Thinking about going back to doctor but I'm so confused. Should my lorazepam be raised? Is it still too soon? Should I take another .5mg of lorazepam mid afternoon? Is the 30 mg too strong or not strong enough since I've been on these same meds for many years? Someone please advice, I feel so sad right now

Yes, Dr did say if I needed to I could take another one in the after noon. I haven't yet, for just anxiety fear. I usually take the 5mg about 5 in the morning. I just have never done it, ( take 2nd dose ) so I was a little apprehensive to do so.
