Lorazapam

[Dee]

I was taking 1 lorazapam at bed time for many years. It worked well as far as helping me sleep through the night. My Dr. retired and i ran out  I had some ativan that someone gave me which seems to work. My question is, will there be any withdrawal symptoms if i stop taking these all at once? any info on this would be appreciated.

Hello ladies, Angelica check your mail you may find a rainbow!
Cin, I recieved your reply and I'm touched deeply as always by your spirit. I guess I'm under the right thread for once in my life. Today I started my decrease in Lorazapem. it's really funny how the mind works. I know it's too soon for any real feelings physically, but I 've caught myself sighing several times today in anticipation of I don't know what. What a HOOT I am to myself sometimes. All will be well I know. When this is out of my system the only thing left that I'll be addicted to is GOD, my wife and family and all of YOU! LOL NOW THOSE ARE THINGS I'M NOTTTTTTTTTTT!!!! gonna detox from ever! God bless you all and your families.
Power & Magick 2 U,
Peace & Light (and a few rainbows) on us all,
luv Wiz

I'm so glad you made it home safely...
i have so much catching up to do too.  my husband is now safety tucked away in rehab.  What a hoot, he's in with A.J. from Backstreet Boys!
These past 4-days have been so incredibly difficult.  Many difficult ones ahead too!

Hope you acclimate back into your world.
Good luck sweetie.

I think the move is a great idea.  Nothing like the sea breeze to clear your mind.  Jobs are very plentiful there......I'm going away till monday.  I promise to catch up when I return.  I'll try to send you an email and let you know how things are going when I return in a few days.  & love to you my friend.

Hi guys. Hope everyone is doing good. I wanted to write and tell you all your in my prayers.
    Wizard, thanks for the compliments. Your too kind. You comparing me to the wonderful Mother Theresa was too kind. But your not far off base in one way. I had to laugh. My kids call me Mother Theresa kidding around because my name is Theresa. So I got a real kick out of that. Thanks for the monkees. I had a good day. I actually got to go swimming today. We've been having so much rain that we haven't been able to swim for the bad weather. I know you pray for me. About talking to my church family about my forum family. I want people to understand the Lord said "Rain falls on the just and the unjust alike ", and I feel like addiction is as bad a disease as anything I've ever had. I don't look at addicts the same way I did when I first came here. When I was twelve, I went to a church where the pastor was an alcoholic. I remember when he went off the wagon. I thought he was lying about being saved. I now know that I was wrong. My father was an alcoholic too and as a child I didn't think he wanted to be sober. I know now I was so wrong. I want to teach others about this disease. The people here have given me an understanding about addictions I may of never learned on my own. I knew it was a sickness but not how it's effects are on the addict. I thank all of you for teaching me how to remove the mote from my eye.
    Cindi,my sweet girl, it's so hard to live apart from people you love. When we moved to Tennessee, I left my parents and two sisters in Florida. Then my younger sister and her family moved here. My parents moved here. I still have a sister in Florida and a lot of other relatives. With momma and daddy gone now, I feel so sad that my siter is in Florida with none of us. But all her kids are married and live there. So I can still go visit her once in a great while. Maybe a change in your life will be helpful for you. Your mom would be proud of you Cindi. you truly are a good person. Write me soon.
    Jennyfla, hold on to Gods love and allow Him to be your help during the dark moments. your on the right track so keep keeping on. your in my prayers.
    Angelica, I hope your pain is doing better. You are such a help to everyone on this forum.Your prayers are greatly appreciated friend. I hope your trip will be a good one. God Bless .
    Thanks to all my forum family. God Bless.
