In reply to Is it helping with Anxiety???????????????, posted by invisiblemanpa on January 1, 2007, at 8:37:10
> I just got bumped off of Ativan after a long run....it did work for me, but the dr. took me off after I broke down last week and drank....addictive...blah blah blah.......and put me on 50 mg or Seroquel twice during the day then 200 mg at night.....is anyone having relief from anxiety by using Seroqel or do I need to fight to get my working benzo back........????
I'm also sorry to hear about this, sounds like an extra conservative doctor though I don't know how much meds you're on and I answered the previous alcohol question so I see where this is coming from -- not to be ad hominem but you are mad at your doctor.Some disorders warrant things like Seroquel but merely because someone drinks on lorazepam, and I dont know how much you take again per day -- frankly its usually a PRN drug and not a daily drug like klonopin, this sounds a little odd, unless he thinks you show bipolar tendencies beyond drinking. And there are facts that again, are your personal business, as to whether you are or ever have been an alcoholic. However, alcohol and Seroquel aren't the best either, its not deadly usually I can say from long experience, its just more sleep inducing.
-- tidings and may this be a better new year
