Advice & Tips
Attivan, is a major plus for me. The pill dissolves quickly in the mouth and the time of initial effect is such (10 - 15 min. ) that I can take a dose and feel calm or I can take what is needed to stop a seizure. The calming effect is effective since I seize and my muscles tense . The impact on my life has ben great because of the fact that I now have a rescue mdication that I can trust and believe will accomplish what I want it to do.

Advice & Tips
Ativan has a very serene, calming affect on the nervous system. Since the drug has such an affect I only take the prescription drug when needful. Other benefits from the drug is that it allows the nervous system to do its job and at the same time if you are in pain, you will experience some relief. The impact of this drug on my life is expotential. I need the rescue medication as well as the relief from pain.

Advice & Tips
I have been prescribed 1mg of Lorazepam up to 4 times daily as and when required. I ALWAYS carry 4 tablets with me just in case. I find that if I do not have them with me I panic even more that I may need one! So far I have only had to take a Lorazepam moderately when out and about. I find that it used to work wonders but now only takes the edge of my anxiety and panic. Maybe this is because I am building up a tolerance to this medication or maybe my GAD is getting worse, I do not know.

Advice & Tips
My experience is that it takes the edge off of emotions. I am aware when I should have hightened emotions... i.e. marriage, birth of a baby, funerals, trauma... etc. I do feel the emotions but I dont believe that I am feeling them appropriately.
