"THOSE WHO CRASH FROM IT AND HAVE FITS/SEIZURES. ARE PR-DISPOSED TO SEIZURES, AND DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH GABA IN THEIR BRAIN TO COMPENSATE - FOR THE ABSENCE OF XANAX.

FOR GOD SAKE... EVERYONE EAT REALLY WELL. TAKE RECOMMENDED SUPPLIMENTS FISH OIL ETC B12 + BIO-CHROMIUM = GABA IE. EGGS AND RED KIDNEY BEANS(AND TOMATO PASTE). IF THAT DONT WORK. CONSUME THE PRODUCT. IT'S AS CHEAP AS NOW ON EBAY.

BUT eat....

@hughmcrae you can eat my ass!!!!!!!!

HEY ATIVAN MAN - GET OFF THAT SHIT IT'S ALREADY FUCKED U UP.

BENZO'S ARE AN AID - OCCASSIONAL. THEY AIN'T FOOD.

YOUR RIGHT - DON'T TAKE BENZOS EVERY DAY, ESPECIALLY THAT ONE NOW!!! THESE PEOPLE WHO BAG (GIVE XANAX) A BAD REP IN THEIR POSTS EVERYWHERE.

F U PEOPLE. THAT DRUG IS A GABA MODULATOR NOTHING MORE NOTHING LESS. (WHICH MEANS INCREASE OF LEVELS OF GABA AROUND NEURO SITES)

@hughmcrae Fuck you!!! Try listining to the fucking video, I know how to correctly use medicine you fucking doctor want to be.

Trazedone, buspar, celexa , lexapro, inderal , and a few others I can't think of.

[johnsondkf]

@nixd0013 You really should see a specialist who dals with this everyday all day long, a psychiatrist. Took me 7 antidepressants before I saw one and he found the right med the first visit. Been on it since 10-2-10

Take it from another Ativan user, don't walk, RUN as fast as possible to escape ATIVAN-HELL! This powerful medication is highly ADDICTIVE, DANGEROUS & CAUSES COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT, MEMORY LOSS, WORSE ANXIETY, SUICIDAL TENDENCIES, RAGE, ANGER, VIOLENT BEHAVIOR, DEPRESSION, JOB LOSS, WRECKED LIVES & ZERO QUALITY OF LIFE!

@MyLesPaulcopy doesn't matter. Take as prescribed and your still messed up wanting more.

@johnsondkf Hey been awhile since videos! How is everything?

[jeste4187]

@hughmcrae Some people need it. You are misinformed.

[mrpapafunky7879]

my doc said take 0.5mg twice a day. is this the only type of med they have(meaning benzos) to help someone stabilize their mood or what?is this the best modern medecince has come up with?

I started taking Ativan about 3 years ago and when I started it was about 1 a day 1 milligram and now 3 years later I'm taking 4 pills a day 2 milligrams each I can't stop because when I do I feel like I'm losing my mind and my paranoia of people thinking bad about me keeps me afraid of not having a pill

[CorneliusFractogram]

The distinction that people need to learn to make is that between addiction and dependence. I don't find benzos addictive at all, but it doesn't matter how well you control your substance use, if you take benzos daily you will become dependent on them. Tolerance goes up, you take more, and more frequently if the half-life is short. It's some sneaky shit and if left unattended it will not stop until it has ruined your life. Please people be aware before you ingest.

I just took an Ativan and it makes me think that this guy is kinda funny. His facial expressions bring a smile to my face.

[NOISETECHNICIAN1]

I find 8 mgs. and a 10% I.P.A. to be rather nice.

[chicagodude8888]

@carolynn420 What do you think heroin and alcohol are? They are both downers do you really think people get addicted to them and abuse them to feel sad and deppressed or happy and euphoric and worry free? Use logic you ignorant fucktard its a deppresant of the central nervous system not your mind

[LoveLightLife]

So many postings/videos about this med & similar meds. My exp: Anxiety is the result of feeling out of control; Depression is the result of feeling out of hope. Both may be assisted by the temporary, carefully guided use of ativan/Lorazepam (Anxiety) or remeron/Mirtazapine (Depression), but as videos indicate - NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE PROFOUND WITHDRAWAL AFFECTS WHEN TAPERING DOWN, using as emergency measure regular/small prescribed doses with follup. Nutrition, Exercise, Counseling helped me!

[carolynn420]

One more thing, how could anyone get addicted to something that is considered a downer? It doesn't make you happy. It doesn't make you laugh or feel good. It just stops you from worrying and dwelling on things that you can't change. I've been able to answer my phone and go outside for the first time in a long time without fear of having to talk to someone. Don't get me wrong, the fear is still there, it just isn't paralizing.
