From my experience with benzos, and considering the frequency and intensity of your panic attacks, I agree with you that you're looking at the problem of tolerance (needing more Ativan to have the same effect).

Another problem with benzos is that when you're taking them prn you're putting yourself on a roller coaster ride of emotional ups and downs.
I'm on buspar, gabapentin, visteral, zyprexa, invega. That's it I think. Yeah I think I've decided not to take them. Its unbelievable that I'm still having panic attacks when I'm on so many meds. But I am and they last 4-6 hours. It's pure misery....
