also sounds like you have an adverse reaction to ativan anyway. that's why you are having those symptoms u mentioned.
don't think you need to go to a rehab, just need a weaning timeline to get you off.
Ok thank you Iam glad I dont have too go to rehab its expensive .I told my doctor and he said he dont want me too wean off of it just yet .Iam going to find a new doctor because something wrongs with him before I do end up in rehab.
