Ativan is an anti-anxiety type medication. This is what they give people who go into the ER after a terrible accident or such to calm them down. In the ER, Critical Care Unit, or Intensive Care Unit, they use this drug in extremely high doses to keep the patient calm (can't think of the word to use instead of calm) .

I have been seeing my Psychiatrist for about 6 years, he doesn't ever have to look back and read my chart before I come in, he remembers me. He does though, quite frequently look back to make sure he isn't giving me something that we have tried before and didn't agree with me. The dosage on the Ativan is so low that I do not ever worry about it, though it is addicting, and I am sure that I am addicted to it, but I hate not sleeping and if I do not take something, I will never ever go to sleep and that is a horrible feeling after a week or two. Let me tell ya !

Zanax, I hate it. So many DR's prescribe this stuff by the bottle full and never look back, what is going on with that? I think that these drug companies are making so much money on this stuff, and they give the DR's many gifts. I over heard my Allergy Doc telling one of his reps that he loved his trip to a FOREIGN COUNTRY ( that being another one that I cannot remember) criminy !!!!!! That really upsets me that I cannot use my vocabulary the way I would like, I cannot remember a thing !!!!

I hope you find something that agrees with you soon!
