I don't have any suggestions, just the same problem most of you have. I've taken .5 mg lorazepam per day for 10 years, usually at bedtime. I started after heart issues put me in the hospital and I had a defibrillator / pacemaker put in my chest to prevent recurrance. Lately, I've been having anxiety problems and for a short time a couple of weeks ago I doubled my dose to .5 mg twice per day only to find it's harder to go back to .5 mg per day now. My doctor recommended I start Fluoxetine (Prozac) for relief of anxiety but I fear getting on another med will just make things worse. Has anyone used Prozac or Paxil to wean off lorazepam? Any advice? Or will this just be another drug that will cause more problems. I've been reading this thread, very helpful advice from all and much appreciated.
