this helped with the anxiety.

I was on ativan for at the start of my BP in order to control the manic episodes. It worked for me, the only thing is to be careful with dosing since the sedative effects increase with dosage increase

alliviates the needs/side effects related to alcohol while detoxing
Working / Worked
Worked but the effects of the drug made me feel less conscious of what I was doing or feeling.
Working / Worked
Pdoc gave it to me for extreme anxiety attacks during manic spells. Need it a lot at work where the stress gets to me.
Used in hospital for calming effect. Never used at home.
Working / Worked
My favorite. Helps me sleep without sedating me and truly works during moments of extreme panic. No pain in the neck side effects like weight gain. Prevents extremes and regulates sleep.

I just use it as needed. It works quickly and takes the edge off my anxiety. Only down side is it makes me extremely tired.
