Hello all. I started Ativan 12 years ago to help with sleep due to tinnitus caused by noise exposure. It helped me sleep but now I would like to get completely off as I feel it fogs my thinking in the morning. I have never taken more than 1 mg per day and currently cut 0.5 MG tabs in half and take 0.25 twice a day. I can tell when it is time for next dose. Cutting half a tab into a quarter is difficult. I could skip the AM dose but that would be a 50% reduction and that seems too much. A few years ago I forgot the med while on a trip and it was unpleasant to say the least.
Maybe the liquid form would help?

Thank you and I appreciated this forum

Definitely try the liquid. Much more manageable
