anxiety
"I started taking lorazapam (Adivan) when I was 16 (I'm 32 now) for panic attacks and anxiety, 2mg twice a day. They did work well but had a short half life. I had 3 grand mal seizures when I was trying to come off of them. I switched to klonopin 6 years ago because a new Dr said that they would keep me on a more even keel because of their longer half life and he was right!!  But even on klonopin, which ARE addictive, I had a grand mal seizure when trying to ween off.  So I just take my klonopin as directed, 1mg 3x a day and I feel normal.  Some people try to say that benzo's aren't addictive, but that's a lie.  So just be careful when u hear others say that they can take their medication only when they "need it"."
