I have been off anti depressants for about a month but may have to go back on something for a while. I fell off the wagon last week and took Ativan. I am trying not to do it again but when your legs feel like they can’t hold you up and your hands are trembling, it’s hard to just feel that way. I know the Ativan isn’t effective anymore. Today, I had some bills to pay and my right hand was in a spasm. I printed out the checks and just used cursive to sign them. My husband was helping me with the bills but he’s shaky too from stress and the Parkinson’s.
Please take care of yourself as well.

I already wrote you a long reply. I didn’t see that you’ve only been off antidepressants for a month so you could still have some lingering symptoms like not being able to stand up and your hands trembling. I had that on the Lorazepam. Like I said all these feel good medicines might help you for a short time.

Benzo Recovery and existence on Facebook is what you need to be on. You will find many many people with similar problems like yours and you also WILL find help. That was my last resort and the best thing I ever did. I got so much help on there and so many people I could relate to because they were having the same issues as myself. If you need more help, they will let you know what other benzo site to go to. I hope and pray you go on there that site is what saved my life and many others that are having serious side effects.If you have questions. Your questions are answered. . I never would’ve made it had I not gone on there, just a wealth of information. Please just check it out.
