the doctor has decided to put me on citrol a form of cipramil.

she feels I might need a few benzos for a few days also.

I cant take xanax as they make me agitated.

she is considering ativan or rivitrol.

I took a small dose of rivitrol before and it knocked me out I just slept.

Ativan made me feel I had been hit over the head but I think the dose was too much

I know everone is different but which of the two is probably best?

just to settle me for a few days cos ssris have made me a bit agitated previously.

bet:hugs:

Hi Bet
its hard to say isn't it, but lorazepam( Ativan) always worked best for me for many years but don't stay on them forever!
Just short term
Take care Luv Richie xxx
