IBS and Anxiety
Im taking
Ativan
(Lorazepam) during the day and one Librax at night. This is supposed to relax my colon and my anxiety. It helps a little and I sleep well. Ive had no appetite because of the anxiety so have lost alot of weight. In fact I'm scared to eat because it always causes pain.

Emsam or/and Ativan for anxiety and depression?
It's one of those questions that ask if I want to chance getting big time sick with Emsam or
Ativan
? I have most of the side symptoms of the Emsam now without taking it.
Ativan
has to be ingested. Back to thinking about Emsam. It might help and it might make those side effects miserable.

Ativan Free!
As of yesterday I’m officially weaned off my
Ativan
. While I was only on it for about 6 months, I was terrified of coming off of it. My anxiety has been crazy this past week but I did it. Hopefully as the weeks progress my anxiety will level back out. Fingers crossed!

Numbness and tingling in face
I would add that I adjusted meds a bit this past week (Zoloft) and weaned off
Ativan
on Friday. Is this a symptom of anxiety or meds?

Ativan withdrawl
I keep telling myself it’s the withdrawal from
Ativan
but I’m terrified that it’s a relapse. I’ve worked so hard to get to where I’m at. Feeling hopeless this weekend as the old symptoms have creeped back in. Any advice/reassurance is appreciated!

Random update
I’m antsy to start the next
Ativan
cut and close that chapter of my life. But I know how unhealthy rushing it is. Exchanged Christmas presents with my family last night (and celebrated 4 birthdays!

Unsteady on my feet
I’m also now weaned off of
Ativan
since Friday. It feels like no one understands what I’m feeling....Everything is spacey and wobbly, making it hard to keep my balance. Is this anxiety?!

Just got over a 4 day non stop anxiety attack-NEWBIE
I talked to a mental health worker who was totally a sweetheart and so very understanding.( I have a complicated home life that causes a lot of stress) Then I got some
ativan
and within an hour I was feeling way better. They also gave me buspar. And I plan on seeing a therapist.

Girly question
I’m on day 5 of my latest
Ativan
cut and I know mid week is usually the worst anyway, but I got my period yesterday. My emotions and anxiety are all over the freaking place.

Case of the blahs
Somehow I felt like the
Ativan
was helping with the concussion headaches/dizziness though. Coincidence? The headaches seem to be getting worse again which is really depressing. I try hard to remind myself none of this is permanent, but it’s hard. :/

I had a good day!
Today is the first time in 5 months that I didn't have to take any
ativan
. My anxiety was that low. This morning I didn't think I could make it to the store and I pushed my way through it and made it to two stores and didn't take any meds. I can't believe I made it.

PSP and Hallucination: What should i expect?
In hospital, he has a sitter but they were not able to control him in the night and ultimately gave
ativan
after trying seqouel. His eyes are closed but still no respite from moving hands and legs. This has been going on for almost last 36 hours. What should i expect?

Feeling stuck
It has been really hard dealing with a concussion while tapering off
Ativan
. The concussion symptoms increased my anxiety symptoms, which is why I’m on the
Ativan
. But now tapering off gives me anxiety. Concussion therapy increases my symptoms, which gives me anxiety.

been doing good
I haven't needed to take any
ativan
for 3 days. the longest I've gone without in 5 months. I usually have to take it every day. I am hoping I am on my way out of this awful anxiety hole that I am in. Everyone tells me I will feel better in time and to let time pass.

I know I talk a lot about different drugs.
I hear you take
Ativan
3 times a day. Regularly. Anyone had any luck? I know Jayinla has had success with it. Thoughts?

Ativan taper advice
There is something called the Ashton Method for tapering off fast acting benzos, like
Ativan
. It involves switching to Valium, which is longer acting and supposedly easier to cut and taper off of.

Ugh.. lonely pt. 2
Today’s already been a high anxiety day for me bc I’m in the middle of another
Ativan
cut. My husband and I were finalizing our wedding pictures about an hour ago when he got an emergency call for work and had to leave.
