I got put on Ativan on Wednesday due to some problems with voices telling me bad things. I spent the night in the ER on Tuesday and they sent me to my clinic on Wednesday then they gave me 1mg of Ativan. Man that stuff works but it sucks the life out of ya. I have no more emotions and want to sleep all the time. I get up long enough to eat, watch a little T.V. and then go back to bed. I called the clinic today and they gave me permission to break them in half. So hopefully I can get some things done. I need to get my life back.

(((((((((((((((Jannie)))))))))))))) Yes, I had that happen to me once. I think breaking them in half will help. Hang in there.

(((((jannie)))))

I remember this one woman in partial who was addicted to Ativan. She'd go around to each doctor she could trying to get her fix! And if she was without them she'd constantly say how she couldn't handle anything, said all kinds of things really...anything to get that drug! And everyday she'd ask the T if she could go see the doctor.

She was quite interesting!

(sorry, the word Ativan just stirred up that memory)
