How to get off depression and anti anxiety drugs?
human
I was diagnosed with major depression in Dec. of 1991. I have been taking Lorazepam since 12/91 or 1/92. Last (?) years have taken 2mg at bed time, and some times 1/2 mg in daytime. Would this be hard to come off of? Also which is the lesser evil of the anti-anxiety drugs? Thank you.

hithanks for using healthcare magic U have been taking tab lorazepam since 1991, but ur dose is slight in very much control. It is not difficult in ur case to stop lorazepam. try to do some simple steps like take half tablet when u feel, u cab get sleep. It would help to decrease the dose at night time and maintain same dose for next few days. Then gradually further reduce the dose to half and then stop it. If u feel any problem in getting sleep, u can take tab zolpidem sos.it does not cause any dependence. In day night, better to take clonazepam due to its longer half time. rest u can consult ur psychiatrist.thanks
