Anxiety
"Hey Everyone, I take 2mg of Ativan a day. 1 mg in the morning and 1 mg at night before bed. I have been diagnosed with Severe Panic Attack and Depression. Lorazepam (Generic brand for Ativan) does help me. Understand that the effects for any medication is going to vary person to person. I don&#039;t get sleepy in the morning when I take it, but it does help me get a good night&#039;s sleep at night when I&#039;m tired. 



Also, I do want to say: Recently, my pharmacy didn&#039;t give me the exact amount of pills of Ativan, so I have been off of it &quot;cold turkey&quot; because I ran out and the withdrawal symptoms can be a hellish.



Note: Anybody can be dependent on any medication/drug. Talk to your Psychiatrist. REMEMBER...everyone responds to medication differently."
