Hi Matt,
Well,when I took 5mg 3 times a day ,I felt dull the first day.
However,when I continued and increased the dose to 10mg 3 times a day,and as days went by, the sedation and dullness went away,and I was more talkative,happy,and sometimes a little euphoric and disinhibited with no anxiety or any "epesodic aggression".-Ativan was more like a "mood stabilizer" for me:it did not give me the buzz,but made me go through problems with ease.However,when I stopped it ,I felt that all the time I've taken it was like errased from my memory,and old unresolved problems returuned strongly.
