lorazepam not working

[flatlife]

just took half a milligram and nothing. I feeel so shit I was hoping it would work to calm me down or chill me out but nothing.

is this normal? I've taken it 3x before (over weeks calm down) and it worked . why not now?

When did you take it?

@justasking111
well over an hour ago
it hasn't helped
worked in about 20 mins before

I am sorry should work inside an hour and a half. Try going for a walk to speed up your metabolic absorpption.

Have a drink to make sure it isn't stuck in your throat

thank you all

A hot drink like a cup of tea can help. Half a mg is tiny though, I used to have 2mg or 5mg tablets, I don’t think half a mg would have any effect on me

Are you thinking of diazepam Buffalo? I took 5mg to 10mg of diazepam, but 0.5mg to 1mg of Lorazepam for equivalent effect.

Agree with hot drink and a bit of exercise. Hope you feel better soon

@VotePedroPony I’ve taken so bloody many over the years I may well be!
