commenters, you should know something about me. I HATE ATIVAN. i have too much experience with it. though it was *kind of* funny to leave the hospital and say to the doctor, “you know, the last time i was here was the only time i haven’t been sent home with ativan.” i’ve gone to their ER there a few, meaning more than two but less than 10, times cuz of cracking up type shit and they’ve always given me ativan and seroquel. seroquel is cool. though taboo, since it’s in fact an antipsychotic and can cause permanent damage in the form of ticks and tremors.
so last night i didn’t take it. why? cuz no one in my family likes ativan. it doesn’t do shit and then, the whole time you’re thinking of valium and percocet and sledgehammers and wonderful things that actually sedate. instead of these little pills that do nothing and leave you more anxious about why they’re not doing anything. why you’re such a freak that 2 mg of something that could knock out a 300lbs football player does nothing about your pacing or hearing voices or seeing spiders everywhere. really smart spiders, who probably have the answers.
so last night they gave me 2 half mg caps and they’re in my yoga bag, awaiting attention.
anyways, just thought i would share that in case y’all felt screwed by not getting them. if the doctor doesn’t take em…i’ll most likely share!
