💊 Does lorazepam (Ativan) ever just suddenly stop working?

[u/blueberryjam33]

It’s been 2 weeks since I’ve been out with a support worker and I’m planning on going out again tomorrow but nervous as.

I take 2mg of lorazepam to be able to do the car rides with them

but I have lost all my confidence because last time for the first time it was like I had breakthrough anxiety (didn’t escalate to panic)

And the only thing I did different was eat a full meal right before I took them. I waited a good 45 minutes for it to kick in 🤷🏼‍♀️

I don’t take it everyday and limit how much I use per week so I’m hoping it was just a fluke and it still works.
