HI
Well come to HCM
To all of my patient those are having such psychiatric disease advise them to keep them selves away from the medicines as long as it is possible and try to come out of this condition even without it and this is not difficult one can do it, and for that you have to go and try some exercise, yoga, meditation, relaxation therapy, be positive, practical, everything would be fine soon, increasing the dose of Ativan is not good idea neither safe, take care.
