I had a bad addiction to benzo's and to alcohol.
I would take Xanax or Ativan during the daytime to keep from shaking as I withdrew from the prior night's drunk.
It was that bad for me.
Not a fun way to spend a day or an evening.
I detoxed in a hospital and haven't had a benzo since.
They gave me tranzene (or something like that) to facilitate a healthy detox, and that worked fine for me.
You may want to get a second opinion if you crave Ativan after you detox.
Benzo's can have pretty strong withdrawals.
Stick around and let us know how you are doing.
We all wish you the best in your efforts to get clean and sober.
