Maybe it is because going off the ativan causes you to get anxiety in turn the stomach issues. I take ativan too. But finding out it makes me tired. I used to take xanax. I think I like it better. I had no issues with switching. Why are you going off of ativan? Just curious.
I hope you feel better soon.

Hi Karen. Really appreciate your feedback.
For the first time, I was taking ativan on a twice daily basis. For about
a decade, was just "as needed". Problem was that I was needing it much more often. It was making me unsteady, drowsy and a bit confused. I've always feared getting dependent on benzos for the withdrawal issues. Reading a bit online and found something called "benzo belly" when some folks quit them. Just figured I'd ask if others here have had a similar experience.
Thanks again. Have an awesome rest of the weekend and Fourth of July.
