As someone that has used both alcohol and benzodiazepines interchangeably over the years to self regulate, you are running the risk of just switching addictions/dependencies.
What has gotten me in the horrendous condition I'm in now is the Ativan wasnt working anymore. I took another. Hmmm... still not working and I was suffering. And I thought a drink wouldn't hurt. Hadn't even thought about drinking in 9 months.
It was very bizarre. Just a cautionary tale
Wow, so many people suggesting a benzodiazepine. Maybe I'm just being too hard on myself
