My husband was prescribed Ativan one table twice daily while under the care of his Oncologist doctor, plus various other medications and others the were injected. His doctor told my husband he could not do anything more, because he way afraid to hurt him with the medications. After seeing his doctor the following day I found my husband not responding, he passed away the evening.. Upon inquiry,, one of his doctors asked me what happened? Then stated you can’t never tell which way the cells will go. She could not believe my husband passed away. I miss my husband every day, and I’m still in denial, devastated, angry, depressed and having to learn acceptance. I’m having to learned to live without the one I loved and I lost. All due to all these medications the are causing harm and are killing our loved ones.

The side effects are life changing. Tried to switch meds after almost 20 yrs and the with drawl symptoms were beyond anything you can imagine. Was off for 1 yr and made the difficult decision to go bad on just for some form of a "normal" existence.

Without my knowledge or consent as a PR my Mother was administered Ativan every four hours while in the Hospital. She had not been checked on and I arrived to find her in a medical induced coma that killed her the next morning. Upon inquiry was told staff was busy through the evening & her Dr. on call prescribed it. Devastated 2+ yrs later!

Given .5g Ativan to TRY/TEST out for a breathing issue that was misdiagnoised as aniexty. This test ruined my life and was never told of the harm this dangerous med can do when you stop taking them. When told Doc of then then issues, she prescribed me more meds and still didnt inform me of the dangers of the previous one, Ativan. I was told I wasnt having withdrawl and to stop reading and researching information. Not to believe what I read. I ended up COLD Turkeying and not taking anymore meds and boy it has been very bad.

Was put on Ativan/Lorazepam by Dr. Z in 2011 after being hospitalized at JFK. After raising dosage over 4 years, in 2015, I was told to go to rehab to get off immediately. After being in several rehab centers where it almost killed me. I was not accepted to 2 who said it is harder to get off of than heroin. In 2015 I had to go to RE 12 times and was hospitalized at JFK again.
Was prescribed 6-8 meds that made me do things that I was not conscious of, including as auto accident that put me in hospital, unconscious for 3 days being released promising to be readmitted into JFK hospital. There I was prescribed 6-8 different meds.
Found new Psychiatrist who told me that I must get back on Ativan now with several other meds and that is how I am surviving presently.

Ativan has landed 3 of my family members in mental institutions. I absolutely abhor pharmaceutical companies and their selfish tactics to make the almighty dollar.

Toxic Psychiatric drugs destroyed my life, and irrevocably changed me. Effexor is by far the most dangerous to withdraw from - if it were simply replacing a chemical I was lacking, then there should be no withdrawal effects at all. My brain should be back to a normal state of homeostasis. The fact that withdrawal is SO dreadful, with such terrible physical effects, means my brain is in complete turmoil. Why?

Lorazapam ruined my life. Coming off of it causes me to develop POTS and neurological symptoms that I've been able to remidy.

Dr.Z. started Gloria on Ativan/Lorazepam in 2011. Was told in 2015 that she had to go to detox immediately with no other instruction. After cold turkey at several detox favolities, that almost killed her. Some refused to take her, saying that heroin is reasier to get off of. Found new Psyciatrist in Nov. 2015. She put Gloria back on Ativan and she is surviving today, April 2020 and inable tp skip any of the 3 tablets per day or she will be back in JFK Psyco ward. While trying to get off, Gloria was in 12 emergency rooms and used several ambulances. ER rooms alone cost $5000. in 2015. We have all the prescrription paper and bottles that have been used since 2015.
Appreciate any help we can get. Thanks.
