Doctor put me on Lexapro and Ativan
I went to the doctor yesterday and that's what he put me on. He said not to take the ativan everyday but that it would help until the lexapro started working. I only took 0.5mg this morning and I've feel kind of in a fog all day. No euphoric feeling or body feeling.. I just feel kind of slowed down more than usual. Thoughts?

I kind of feel like I'm cheating on my sobriety then. Should I wait until I quit the ativan and make that my sobriety date? The ativan doesn't make me feel "high" or "drunk" but it does make me feel different.

The scale goes back and forth on what people "think" is not medication you should be on during recovery, but the simple truth is if you have a good doctor who is looking out for your best interests and you have been open with him about your past you are in good hands. Listen to your doctor - not the people that aren't.
You'll be fine.
