I have been taking Lorazepam ...1 mg. 3 times daily for the past 3+years, for insomnia and anxiety. 3 yrs ago VA missed mailing and I experienced withdrawal;

Weekend Urgent Care gave me EKG test and wrote prescription for Lorazepam...when I filled the presciption, and took the pill ; withdrawal subsided.....

I am nervous about continuing and feel that a natural/safe, non-addictive could help me. Could you please make suggestions that will help me withdraw from Lorazepam?

Thank you,

John P. Signes

No, it's a benzo. It doesnt make pain go away, it calms you down and can help prevent seizures.

Well, depending on which narcotic it is(im assuming by narcotic you mean an opiate/morphine derivitave).
