my psych tried two antidepressants that did not help. Now she gave me Ativan 0.5mg...problem is, is that its not helping me with my anxiety. Is this normal? what do I tell my psych?


any input will be appreciated.

0.5 mgs is a low dose. Double the dose and see if it works now.

.5 mg is a base dose I would say needing 1 mg is not unusual. I used it for years and it was an anxiety killer for me.:)
