Hello,

I'm taking 1mg of ativan 3x a day and i'm traveling and lost it so am going to have to go cold turkey. Can anyone tell me how long I can expect withdrawl symptoms ? I'm already experiencing a high level of anxiety with it. Its been about 12 hours since my last dose and I'm feeling severe anxiety. I can't get home until about another week. Anything I can take to help with withdrawl?

Thanks
Mike

OK its been almost 24 hours since I had to quit cold turkey and I'm really feeling the physical withdrawal along with panic and anxiety. I have neurontin but have not tried taking it for withdrawal I've only been on Ativan for about 2 months for my anxiety but now I'm stuck out of town without medication. The withdrawal from this really sucks!

I am up to 90 clonazapazm per week. I decided to end my life, and it is a welcome relief.

No regrets. I look forward to tomorrow. I decided to jump off a 14 story building.

Wish me luck!
