¿No tienes diazepam de tu médico... para esos momentos difíciles...
I do have lorazepam but trying not to take them!Havent had these crying spells whole time on med till now!I am feeling like I won't recover and this is it for me now!I don't understand I have been on this dose three weeks it should not be because of increase.This drug worked for me in the past but I guess no luck now!
No divida la lorazepam por la mitad.
What if this med isn't working for me though?
Tarda más de tres semanas. Sé que empezaste con una dosis más alta... pero no sufriste y tomaste tu lorazepam.

Thank you means so much to get good feedback!
Honestamente, no pude manejar la vida durante aproximadamente un mes, pasando de los 20 a los 40 años. Pero ahora me siento como yo otra vez, solo dale un poco más de tiempo y espero que te sientas bien de nuevo. Si necesitas hablar, mi correo electrónico es

My doctor told me that every time you up your dose its like readjusting all over again. I upped my dose from 20 to 30 and it took me about 6 weeks to feel better again.
Stick with it.. a few months of hell for a lot of good. I feel so much better now its totally different.
Think of it like youre drinking one glass of wine every day - after a while you mightnt even feel the effects anymore - if you start drinking two glasses of wine every day you will feel it much more and take the same amount of time to get used to that. Be easy on yourself. Indulge in relaxation and drink plenty of water/get lots of sleep.
It is the meds. Trust the process.. at least for a little longer..
If youre not better by January maybe reassess.. I know thats so scary but it can take that long for some. Me included.
Thank you so much!Would you say you were pretty bad.Did you think you won't recover etc?My therapist said just keep swallowing that pill every day and take it day to day.She had been through it herself which helps.
Don't stress about taking Lorazipam. I took Diazepam for the first couple of weeks to get me through the rough days. You don't need to suffer this much and don't be too proud. Do what you need to do to get you over this hill. It will get better. Mark x
