[se...] Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 I just want to encourage everyone... I was on a very low dose of Ativan for 8 months.. but I had SEVERE withdrawals.. so many I don't even want to list them all.. I even had some considered rare... I had extreme anxiety and literally could not fall asleep... I had hallucinations when I took Celexa..... I took it 3 weeks and had withdrawal symptoms coming off of it also... I just knew I would be the one that would be damaged.. that it would never stop... But it did! I took Trazodone for sleeps for a few weeks but now I am on nothing at all! I sleep normally now... I have no anxiety.... I feel great! Praise the Lord! Hang in there DO NOT GIVE UP! DO NOT GIVE IN! If I can do this anybody can!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
