my psychiatrist doesn't like to prescribe ativan

i would just like something to take when I panic
I was taking 0.5mg of xanax every evening. I split it into 0.25mg and after the second day, I couldn't sleep so I was prescribed 5mg of valium to take every night that I couldn't sleep so I haven't taken xanax in 14 days because I took 45mg of valium in 14 days (2.25mg of xanax worth).

I have 5x 5mg valium to take with zopiclone when I can't sleep and then I should be ok - It will slowly decrease in the blood for 2 weeks until I'm off of the benzos.

Then I'll just use 0.5-1.5mg of xanax (10-30mg of valium worth) when I have derealized/depersonalized panic attacks.

I'll find something else to relax in the evening like chamomile tea. I can't drink alcohol anymore because I'm intolerant to it now after tripping.

I don't think it matters which benzos you take as long as you only take 10mg of valium worth 1-2 times a week.

2mg of klonopin = 40mg of valium
1mg of xanax = 20mg of valium
15mg of valium = 15mg of valium
1mg of ativan = 10mg of valium
Thanks for this!
