I’ve taken my Ativan 4 days in a row now… I had a physical dependence to it years ago and it was living hell.

4 days in a row shouldn’t cause me issues, should it?

Im gonna try to not take any tomorrow and Saturday.

I feel you man. … I’m going through some addiction issues right now too. Do you take it when your socializing and out?

Next time I use Uber Eats, im going to buy some.
I just don’t think it will help as much as the Ativan does. Its worth a try though.

Hey man. Nice to hear from you. Yes I take it before family comes over and when I go to doctor appointments or leave the house. It helps a ton but physical dependence sucks.

4 days of taking Ativan in a row shouldn’t get you hooked @TheCanuk but be careful

Yeah skip it for a couple of days then resume it again if you wish

Yeah I think you’re right Wave. I should be fine, as of right now. Just gotta be careful.

Maybe if I get a Prozac increase it will decrease my urge to take Ativan.

Ahhhhhhh

Woke up a couple of hours ago. Feeling good. Dont feel the need to take an ativan.

I hope it lasts all day. If I start feeling anxious, I’ll just take my Olanzapine early and also some magnesium.

I use gabapentin in emergencies. I only took it once for this since it got prescribed though. I also use it for sleep, but only 300mg.

It has a lower risk profile than benzos when it comes to dependance, but also side effects.
