I’m currently taking 1 mg of lorazepam for insomnia anxiety. Some nights it works some nights it doesn’t some nights a half tablet works. I’ve only been taking it for three weeks so I certainly haven’t built up tolerance. Seeing my doctor in another week. saw a sleep specialist who prescribed trazodone 50 mg which didn’t kick in for 2 1/2 hours. So back to lorazepam until I get further direction. I’m tempted to go back to Ambien after a two month break. Maybe it will work better.

How did you wean? Was it a dry taper?
