Hi Everyone,
I was recently perscribed Ativan 3 weeks ago for my anxiety.....and it does seem to dull me to most things including my own real feelings, so i have been trying to stop taking it, but everytime i do i have terrible insomnia, cant sleep at all during the day or night......and i'm on the lowest doseage of Ativan. This all started when i started taking the damn pill. So just wondering if any of you have had to deal with the withdrawl/insomnia and how long i should expect it to last. I make it about 2 1/2 days of no sleep and then i usually cave and take .5mg one. grrrrr so frustrating. Thanks for any help!
