Quick Question

[Applecore]

I have taken in the last 3 weeks about 3 whole lmg lorazapam.  I took a whole one last night in two sections 3 hours apart.  I woke up this am to nervousness in my body.  I wondered if it was from the lorazapam or if I was just nervous.  My heart rate was 87.  I took it when I first had thyroid problems with anxiety and I was nervous and it helped.  So maybe it isn't the drug.  

   Anybody got any ideas or what do you dor for nervousness.  My daughter says take calcium but I have to watch when I take it because of the thyroid.  I take it in the afternoon and evening.  1200 total.

I am now having the depression again.  This is the pits.  My self talk is out of control.  I feel out of control as I can't seem to change this stuff.  Sorry about the complaining but you always help me and this is the time I am in the pits of hell and really need to climb out.  I agree with chitchatnine it must be the thyroid bring up things from previous depression and I'm the lucky one to get to try again.  HaHa.   One thing good about going through depression is that you are going through, not staying in.  love you all and wait for your answers.  

I have some other questions but I will ask them later.  Thanks again   LIncz

My dose is .5 twice a day, 6 hours apart, on a as need bases.  Once a day usually does it for me.  I needed one yesterday but couldn't get to water to take it so I kind of suffered through it. I was out of town.  Next time the same circumstance arrives I am going to take it before I leave the house. I have had  lorazapam on hand now for a few years.

Whatever works for you, give it a shot.

ASAP, GL

I took 1/2 at 6 and 1/2 at 9   -  I have 1 mg. pills.  The holistic doctor that I just talked to told me to take .5 all day long to keep me stabile.  He suggests that I do 5HTP 100 mg 3 times a day and than in 3 weeks start SAMe as directed on pkg. 200-400 mg. day.  Also B12 sublinqual and a B complex 1 twice a day.  He said it will take 7-10 days to feel anything.  I also have an appointment with the psychiatrist and I know he will want me to go on a antidepressant.  I want to try the supplements first along with the lorazapam.  to see if this will get me through this period of time.  I know you take adivan.  Have you been taking it for a while and how do you take it.  as needed or on a regular basis.  I will be taking .5 every 6 hours  which will mean 3 a day.  I don't like to letdown feeling as it wears off.  What mcg do you take.  I took the 1 this afternoon as I really was upset and needed the rest.  It is wearing off now and I can feel it .  I may not take a 1/2 tonight but start in the morning.  I will see what the  psychiatrist says.  I hope he doesn't try to confuse me with whether I am doing right going holistic.  I just want to try it and see if it will take me over this hump.  What do you think.    love linda

You might have taken the two doses too close together.  My instruction says to take 6 hours apart.

Merry Christmas!
