@kawanhee Thanks for clarifying. How painful was it over the six months?
How long were you on Ativan? I would assume it was for anxiety. What have you replaced it with?
I appreciate you being so open with me.

@daveshaw I was originally prescribed .5 mg of Ativan when I was diagnosed with a disease. I then began relying on it for sleep, but it eventually stopped working.
Because I weaned myself very slowly, it was not painful at all.
