Why don’t anxiety meds work for me?

I have been on Ativan 1mg 3x a day for over 25 years. All my doctors tell me I should get off it. I am 74 years old. None of them is helping me. Where do I go for help

I am surprised your pharmacy will still dispense it now days. Who authorises your refills? My psychiatrist and PA say they can no longer authorize benzos, even at just 10 pills at a time for my occasional anxiety attacks that can be long lasting. I am 79 and pissed off. This is cruel for those of us who do not abuse benzos like Xanax, Valium and Ativan.
