im on ativan & have been for over 2 years now & i can tell its helped alot.
Working / Worked
i take it daily, even though it was prescribed with the impression put on me to only take it for emergencies, but my other meds had strange reactions so i rely on this to keep me somewhat functioning.
Working / Worked
i take it daily as of now.....i feel like it creates a need to take it, or ill have another panic attack a lot of the time.
Working / Worked
Used for anxiety as a PRN in the hospital. Can't remember the dosage.
Working / Worked
worked wonders at 0.5mg which was strong dose for me but the problem is that this drug is quite addictive in every way
Working / Worked
lorazepam 0.5 worked at the beginning tho i built up a tolerance to it so then my doctor had to stop it and let me go cold turkey so i opted to go back on the drink instead
Working / Worked
calmed me down so so good but they had to stop it cause i was asking them to give me more to get the same effect etc
Working / Worked
Only used once- on my wedding day. Someone gave me a half of one and it took the panic away with no side effects.
