Hello,
I have been thinking of tapering my 2.25mg of Ativan, because it does not cover anymore,
and creates debilitating symptoms.
I dose 5 times daily ( 0.5) mg every 4.5 hours, and I use the .25 mg before sleep at 9:30 pm.
My dilemma is, is that while there are no issues at night other than sinus problems which interfere with my breathing, there are symptoms that show up, after I take the second dose at 10:30 am.
Symptoms such as heart palps, head pressure, restlessness, dizziness, unsteadiness come calling, becoming unbearable and debilitating as time goes on.
The symptoms abate around 8.00 pm to some extend.
I was told ( by an angel.) that perhaps there is Tolerance WD during the night, as I go 8-9 hours without dosing, and that I should be stable before any tapering plans.
What I am confused about is why the severe symptoms after dosing during the day.
I would be grateful for any thoughts, or if anyone has gone through this with a benzo, and how it was solved.
Thank you very much for reading this, and for any input.
Wishing everyone hurting, wellness and healing.
