Feel scared

4 Replies

Has been a rough 3 months. Still don't know what triggered my anxiety and fears so bad again. I was doing so well. Went to my MD/Psychiatrist and let him know. I had been on 15mg of mirtazapine and .5 mg of lorazepam. He adjusted my meds and raised my mirtazapine to 30mg and told me I could also take my .5 mg of lorazepam twice daily. I have yet to take the lorazepam twice. I feel scared. I guess becasue its new to me and I don't know how it will effect me and I don't want to feel worse. i just want to feel normal. I'm here at work and almost in tears trying to think if I should take the second dose this afternoon or not? Anyone out there taking Lorazepam twice a day? I just need a little reassurance from others that are going through this. Soo tired of this feeling :(

I have been on 1mg loranzepan Ativan 3 times a day as needed for the last 8 years. I don't ever take 3 unless it's real bad. I have taken 2 a day for a while. You will be fine and it should just take the edge off.

i'm here at work also and every now and then the anxiety and shakiness hits me, been on celexa 20mg over a month and also ativan .5mg twice a day as needed but I never took it that way, I would only take half in the morning of one, and now taking half of that half, maybe if I had taken it right I wouldnt always have the shakes but Im a big wimp when it comes to meds. I have family members that take it up to 4mg a day and are fine, again im a wimp. Feel better soon
