Thank you so much for responding. So were you on the Ativan first and then added the antidepressant? I spoke with my doc today and a slow taper and adding in Zoloft. I’ve taken Zoloft twice in the past and it worked. Then my system will just sputter out and I have to stop the Zoloft. I’m so sick and very depressed. I am going to try the breathing , exercise , acupuncture and everything I can. I pray the Zoloft will work again and that I can wean off this Ativan .
