So I posted on a different topic earlier about having obsessive negative thoughts and started to do some research online. I found this topic on a forum about someone having similar, or in fact the exact same side effects as me.

I'm wondering if obsessive thoughts are part of the withdrawal from Ativan. I recently dropped my dosage of Ativan (I've been taking it about 2 weeks) from 1mg two times a day to 0.5mg two times a day and today I stopped cold turkey. I'm wondering if anyone here has taken any Benzos and had similar side effects trying to get off of them? I don't want to take them anymore, I'm actually done taking medicine all-together because I honestly think I don't need them and they are just making me worse and messed up in the head.
