I tapered off of Ativan because it was a benzo and wasn’t helping me sleep anymore. All
My doctors wanted me off it. I transitioned to mirtazapine which allows me to sleep…finally.
I also had genetic testing to find out which drugs would work for me. You may want to look into that. Best wishes!!

Thank you
I am working with my pharmacist. Actually did genetic testing today to see what drugs will work for me. I am really weird. Melatonin sets me on a role .. like drinking 8 cups of coffee.
Tried lexapro and that was a nightmare. Hopefully the testing will help
Do not think doctors know that much about pharmacology. They just prescribe pills!!!!
