I am curious what your dosage was on lorazapam. I take 1/2mg in the morning and again at night. How did you get off it? Did you suffer any withdrawals. As far as natural, I would try valarian, also reishi mushroom are said to have a calming effect. I was prescribed the lorazapam, because I has episodes of crippling anxiety, usually when exerting myself, I have to work and no I fear it is mostly a psychological dependence, but not sure the best way to stop as I have heard it can be dangerous to just quit. Other then that I take no meds.

I can't remember the dosage I only took it when I had a panic attack. My doc took me off because she was worried about althimers. I had no withdrawals. I just asked her if I could use them again while going through rehab because I don't think I can do rehab without something.that anxiety is awful been to the hospital mant times. Just started feeling that way again so need to do something fast.

Passiflora is one of the best natural herbal tranquilizers. CBD oil can also be useful (especially the liquid form). However, be aware that benzodiazepines like lorazepam are extremely potent tranquilizers relative to almost any other antianxiety agent, prescription or OTC. So adjust your expectations accordingly. Counseling/psychotherapy and training in mindfulness meditation can also be very beneficial in helping you with anxiety management techniques. Good luck!
