Experiences with

Ativan

I have been taking Ativan for several years, addiction or routine i dunno ....but. [i][u]TODAY IS DAY 67 IN A ROW OF NO ![/u][/i] [i][u] [/u][/i] [i][u] [/u][/i] If anyone needs any help doing the same thing, I'm here for you.

Recently added 2mg lorazepam to try and offset opiod induced insomnia and get some sleep. Had the opposite effect. Agitation. Restlessness with urge to move. Can't win for losing. Keep turning over rocks until someone gives .

I was feeling a bit better and didn't take ativan yesterday, but then I got anxious and took half a dose. I felt OK but then got really anxious later. I can't sleep now. My whole body feels tight, like its going to pop. And I can't take ativan because it's been too many days in a row.

Last year at almost the exact same time I hit day 44 of taking no Ativan and today is day 45 so I am KING OF THE WORLD (for today anyway ) ... And yes I am posting this so that people will praise me😀

Anyway just wanted to know if anyone is on Wellbutrin , latuda , gabapentin and Ativan.? Still having anxiety and depression that just doesn’t seem to go away. Never feel happy or joyful and haven’t experienced inner peace in years. Anyone else experiencing this? Thanks so much!

For the last of t treatments I took ativan. now I am going to have radiation to cervical vertebra number 1 which has fractured. The say there is little hope of healing if it is not treated. I will have the mask fitting soon and the development of a treatment plan.

Dr prescribed me 50 mg Sertraline and I just got nausea for hours at first. .5 Ativan but they help only for a few hours. Love to do nothing all day but lay in bed or sofa. Used to watch sports, read books and cook amazing meals. Going to grocery store is as far as I go.

Headache/ less drowsy than Ativan but less effective. Will it get better! Thanks.

so my sister was put in the ER yesterday after aspirating. apparently, when the ICU released her to the rehab, the rehab quit giving her breathing treatments and took her off the Ativan and the nicotine patch , she had only been out of the coma for a few days.

I will be seeing my doctor next week but I also understand I have to watch for drug interactions like ppi’s I’ve been occasionally using for reflux and Ativan for anxiety .Many thanks in advance.

I don’t seem like I can control my anxiety anymore… and I don’t want the medication… they gave me Zoloft and another medicine that’s not Ativan. I hate new meds and I’m not into side effects…. I just want to sleep like normal, turn off my brain/thoughts and live life like I used to.

I'm not interested in taking Ativan or anything like that. I'm not looking forward to the skin issues that come with radiation treatment either but at least that will heal after treatment.

I have to take ativan everyday for some anxiety relief. Can you please share your thoughts? Thankyou so much 🙏🏻

On top of these issues, she was given Ativan. It was marginally helpful for a short time and she is now being weaned off with diazepam and having withdrawal (though it’s hard to know what symptoms are coming from where). Her blood pressure and pulse are all over the place.

He’s taking Ativan 0.5mg for anxiety daily , and prozasin 10 mg , mamentine 10mg for suspected Catatonia . Have tried a few ssri for depression but none seemed to work like lexapro, Zoloft, efferox, . The depression is very severe where he can’t function and needs 24 hour care takers with him .

Sertraline- Zoloft Venlafaxine- Effexor Citalopram- Celexa Mirtazapine-Remeron Fluoxetine- Prozac Duloxetine- Cymbalta Seroquel- Quetiapine Lamictal- Lamotrigine Lexapro- Escitalopram Wellbutrin- Bupropion Lorazepam- Ativan Klonopin- Clonazepam Abilify - aripiprazole Tegrotal - carabamezipine

Also, I've been on Ativan 1.5 mg per day for last 30 years. Has anyone heard that this might be part of this RLS thing? Any help would be appreciated.

So then Wednesday night we finally get Ativan added to her account to help her calm down. It is IV but it is the lowest dose. So that helped her sleep pretty well Wednesday night.

The second two days I took Ativan before dosing it worked but it was tough. Maybe my body needs to adjust to the new meds. Any tips?

Has there been any studies or research that shows Benzodiazepine (Ativan) to be the cause of CLL ?
