    I have taken ativan for over 12 years for severe panic attacks. This medication has helped me live a normal life & allows me to go out in public with out thoughts of having an attack. I have attempted to get off this medication 3 different times but each time my panic attacks would return within 2 days. I started taking 4 pills during the day but I have been able to reduce the amount to 2 pills a day unless I have to go some where in a crowd or previous panic attack situation. Then, I take a pill before going which prevents an attack. It took 6 long months to diagnois my panic attacks but 2 weeks after starting ativan I was able to return to stores that I had experienced attacks in before. I was almost totally house bound because of the dread of having an attack in public. I realize I will be on this medication for life but the ability to function as normal as possible is definitely worth it. Before starting ativan I tried several other medications which had severe side effects. This is the only medication that works for me.

    I was first introduced to Ativan during my stay in the Psychiatric Ward. It defiantly helps calm me down at a higher dose (4-6mg) and helps me sleep at a lower dose (1-2mg). The only trouble I have is finding a doctor that will continue to prescribe it to me. I've heard it can be very addictive but I stopped taking it for a few months and felt no withdrawal, just anxious and tired (obviously). Overall I love Ativan. I've been taking it for about one year now and will continue to take it to help with my anxiety.
