I am tapering off Ativan. Went from 1.25 to 1mg. Last week. Having a hard time. Anxiety up. Hard to sleep and perseveration on my son not having a job. Is this normal?

I've been on some sort of benzo for 9 years. I probably should have cut less. But not going up. Will power through. Thanks for replying.

Thanks for posting mentor51. Yes it is normal to be having a hard time. How long have you been on ativan? you take any other drugs? Dont know what you mean by perseveration. Is somebody helping you with your taper. That is over a 20% taper. May be too fast. I did something similar with klonopin starting in may and have not been able to cut more since 7-2-17. My symptoms will not let up; maybe getting worse!
