i still have some. i won't touch it any more though.
why do i keep it? i don't know. i suppose one day, i'll just toss it.

but ativan, like xanax & valium, may feel all comfy while you're taking it, but you lose memory, you forget what happened while you're all gumby. this is not a good side affect.

i have a friend who has taken xanax & valium regulariy for yrs.
she cannot remember shit. within an hour's visit she will tell you the same thing 6 or more times. it's sad.

don't take these Rxs unless you absolutely must.
