[quote=Anonymous]I've taken Ativan for decades and it doesn't make me drowsy. It knocks back the anxiety by half so I can function. The stories are from people who are not used to the medication. I don't even take it to sleep. I take it in the early morning so I can do a long walk without fear of falling. The fear stemmed from being told to get an osteoporosis test. My mother died at 96 and took it or Valium for over 50 years. She didn't have dementia or ever fell from drowsiness. Inherited GAD. Nothing else works. SSRIs give you bone loss by the way. [/quote]
