I have been taking Ativan for many years to sleep. .50 mg. I love it; no side effects and I wake up refreshed. I tried to stop it but then I don't sleep.

I 100% understand what you are saying. I was over prescribed klonopin for YEARS. In 2018, I read an article that prompted me to find an MD to help me get off of it. I'd have stayed on it forever b/c it was so calming and, like you, I slept like a baby. I'm not here to burst your bubble and I do encourage you to read up on the long term impact. Best wishes.
