Have you ever taken Ativan at work?

I'm only supposed to take my Ativan when it is necessary and sometimes work just happens to be the place where I need them. I take them while I am at work and I think that it does impair my working ability. Have you ever taken Ativan while you were at work?

No but I have taken it before. I will never forget how good it felt but once it was addicting and I fell into a depression while weening myself off it. You might consider asking your doctor for medicine that will have similar results but not effect yoyr ability to work.

I was depressed before they gave it to me, it is part of my treatment actually. I don't have a plan for coming off of my treatment yet.

If you have to take it at work, try splitting the pill. If I remeber correctly those have split on them so it should be easy to do. But I could be thinking of another pill. But I would talk to your doctor about this.

It's only a 1 mg tablet, but I think you're right. I think there is a split down the middle of it.

Yes I have. But in my case it helped to relieve a little of my anxiety about being at work. It didn't impair me at all.
