    I was taking low dose Ativan for a while - from February - mid July; didn't have any withdrawals or anything. Now I've just been drinking alcohol, instead hahaha : \ not a bright idea, but I feel stuck at times - either deal with the symptoms or medicate.
    haha before this i loved just having a "drink or 2" to calm me but they thought it was EVERYTHING except anxiety, first it was ulcer, then gallbladder so i stayed away from alcohol just in case. I did pass a kidney stone and once i got that i noticed more chest pain which was probably my bodies reaction to the pain and me stressing about it. I havent drank in over 2 months i also smoked weed almost everyday since i was like 18 and im 24 now. I noticed the past 6mo-1yr or so when i smoked i would sometimes get VERY ANXIOUS, shaky tremors and fear i was dieing, probably basically a panic attack without realizing it. So i quit smoking over the past 2 months which wasnt hard for me at all even though its been so long but hasnt necessarily had any effect on my emotionally or physically.

    im ready to SNAP OUT OF THIS!

    YES - that happened to me as a teenager after smoking weed and I've been afraid to touch it ever since.
