Anya1982,
I had a similar experience when my doc increased my clonazapam to .5 twice a day.
Definite increase in energy. For me the anxiety part of depression is one of the major energy drains.
Pdoc still looking for AD that will deal with anxiety without turning me into a zombie.
I am finding mindfullness meditation, simply focusing on breath, (not so simple) Therapy, and nutrition, and when I have the energy, restorative yoga- cushions, supported poses. Practice living in the moment.
Part of mindfullness is noticing, and then you have choices.
This is progress measured with a calender not a stop watch. It is the practice of daily ordinary activities that make the difference.
This is wonderful when you noticed the increased energy/mood/being yourself!
Let you doctor know how you feel with the Ativan.
There are other versions of antianxiety that may be available for you on an ongoing basis.
