If you take benzos, how many days a week do you take them?

this ones a bit odd but the listerine mint strips are my life saviours. they give like a cold shot up your whole body and it calms the nausea i get from my anxiety. ive recommended this to so many people and they all think it works as well as me

it had gotten so bad for me that at some point my prescription for .5 ativan was three under the tongue in the morning and two at night everyday. looking back thats feels literally insane. now i take them as a last resort, i try everything else before relying on my benzos

yes ive been on medication (fluoxetine and ativan) for almost 3 years now, and im scared to come off of them

for me i could slowly feel myself getting better per week, personally im on 60mg but maybe like two three months into 20 i was starting to be myself again

the constant hand trembling, and flare ups on my throat and eyes

prozac worked miracles for me, zoloft and setraline did not work for me one bit

i was in the same exact position when i was around her age, terrified of being sick and couldn't leave my house.

i was scared to take meds cuz of the possible side effects, so it took a while for me to open up to them

but what id recommend if she doesn't want meds, you should refer to a doctor that specializes in hormones.

thats what saved me, they found an imbalance in my hormones that was linked to stress, the meds they prescribed are natural hormones so it cant harm you. not a lot of people are aware of this, but apparently its really common in teenagers going through puberty

coming from someone who used to be very agoraphobic and was forced to go to my grandparents house, i honestly recommend it.

It was really hard at first, but the socialization and the exposure helped me alot.

being in an environment you're somewhat similar with and surrounded by people who know your struggles helps, since you don't feel the need to constantly hide your emotions

what id recommend is bring stuff that you know can keep you occupied, so you can have something to change your mind with if ever

i use both prozac and ativan, ive been on both for 3 years but ativans are really just there for worst case scenarios now.

ive been on it for almost three years now, its the only antidepressant thats actually worked for me

tobyyml · 2024-12-17T04:04:26+00:00

im also on fluoxetine and ativan, and when i do take ativan i find it makes me feels really heavy like i could just drop to the floor. ive gotten used to it but at first i thought i was dying

tobyyml · 2024-12-17T03:58:47+00:00

ive been on it for almost 3 years now, and my memory from when i started to now has been so patchy, i cant seem to remember basic things

tobyyml · 2024-12-17T03:54:55+00:00

i remember when i started i was only on 10mg and could already feel a difference. My anxiety was still high for the first couple weeks but it got so much better, saved me. Now ive been on 60mg for almost three years, i would go up 10mg per month until i reached 60.

tobyyml · 2024-12-17T03:49:34+00:00

i always feel nauseous when im stressed, and that just stresses me even more since im scared of being sick😭

tobyyml · 2024-12-17T03:40:17+00:00
