Change in Escitalopram manufacturer lead to debilitating anxiety
During one of my ER visits I was prescribed
Ativan
(first time I've ever taken a benzodiazepine) which helps but something I'd rather not have to take. Two weeks later and I am still struggling with residual daily anxiety. Has anyone else had a bad experience with a manufacturer change?

Stomach flu brings 24/7 anxiety
Finally had to take .25 mg
Ativan
to sleep......but hate taking any meds. Odd that a stomach bug brought on 24/7 anxiety !!

Derealization/depersonalization
I had to leave and go outside to get calendar down and take my
Ativan
. Does anyone else get this feeling ever? If so what are some things you do to get yourself calmed down?

Help Anxiety got worse after having a baby.
I am currently going to therapy and just got out on Zoloft and take
Ativan
as needed. I also just recently got put on vitamins to help even me all out. I'm hoping for some relief soon.

Medication help
I am new to this forum and taking
ativan
and prozac now for 10 years. Does anyone find other SSRIs work better for anxiety?

Medicine has been helping.
So I'm on week 1 of celexa and low dose of
Ativan
. I don't plan on taking
ativan
for a longer period Though. Only difference I've seen is possibly drowsy and lazy feeling so far but I'm able to go outside without having a panic attack and freaking out.

Newbie prescribed 5mg Lexapro for panic attacks
Hello all- Yesterday I went to my GP who prescribed me 5mg of Lexapro once daily and 0.5mg
Ativan
as needed. I am prone to panic attacks (extreme dizziness, shortness of breath, numbness in hands, feel like I'm dying) and have been for about three years.

No one understands :(
I did a 7 day trial period of
ativan
and it helped alot, but all that medication is gone and now am constantly crying because my body doesnt feel like my own. Why does anxiety make you feel this way.

Stupid Fear
I took an
Ativan
and just tried to be in acceptance about it. This is my current state. I'm alive. It could be afib but I don't know. Try to just relax. I fell asleep after that.

Deciding what to say, Diagnosis after 15 years in mental health.
I am better, I need my
Ativan
which stops my mind from racing, my psychiatrist is withholding it because I had a drug test and it was present.

No seizures for over four months
Also Zyprexa and
Ativan
. But nothing worked. I experienced terrible side effects..from rashes to weight gain. But still no relief from the seizures.Im from California and we have legal Medical Marijuana and now recreational is legal as well. So I started taking cannabis.

Panic attacks and anxiety
It works just like
Ativan
, only it isn't a dependent and I only take it as needed. I refuse to take any antidepressents.

Small Successes, Returning Home -- The Doctor
The rest of our trip, driving always kept me anxious and only when we returned to LA did it become too much and I took another quarter
Ativan
. We ended up having a wonderful three days there and continued our trip north.

Feeling wretched
I take 0.5
Ativan
at bed time and spray calicim on the base of my neck and fortunately I do sleep for about 6 hours then wake up feeling wretched . Could this be the medication . I have diazepem for emergencies but hardly use it because I don't want to get hooked .
