First post for me...and my story is hardly unique...I came here due to a very stressful week...
About me, I'm getting my masters in a month, and my doctor suddenly decides to cut me off from Alpr@z. 1mg daily, which I've been on for 10 years (2 years with current doc.)
Saw a 2nd doc who was equally lacking in compassion...told me withdrawals "won't be that bad"
I'm coping, shaving my last two tablets down to slivers. Not too desperate yet. (I've been on anxiety meds for 20+ years, and have gone off several times, but never due to being cut off cold-turkey, I've always had a month or more to wean myself off.)
Anyway, I'm happy to meet you all!
Hello from the Great White North. Years ago I got very dependent on Ativan and the withdrawl was agonizing. Took a long time before I could sleep. It was a very large dose. I am pretty sure I know what country your from. There is great support here. Good luck, espically with your masters.
