Some improvement- still thinking updose?more help 🙏🏻

[[...]]

Hi again, I’m still struggling!! If you read my history there has been 2 tapers (k) with reinstatements, last year went kinda’ fast with taper from .50 mg over a year , dropped to .25mg tablet last December.  Taper of 3ml  a week, medicine mixed with.25 mg of K. Water 250 ml.  Been holding for almost 3 months? Still very scary- was doing so well until I hit .25mg tablet only at night.  Sped my taper up a bit to get to .25mg tablet.  I‘ve always been able to stabilize… prior to this

***.25mg dry tablet , mixing.25mg tablet with the 250ml water, until it was gone.  Also worthy to add. At first the .25mg tablet was rapid dissolving  as K. Only comes in .5mg tablet where I am - disastrous as I tried to wean 1ml of that tablet in water- and taper - shaken up was not the word for it- had a new script called in for .5mg “normal “ K tablets.  Currently halving and taking .25 mg at night as stated - I know it’s confusing.  What is happening?? Splitting my dose 2x a day felt weird, stayed with night dose.  I do feel somewhat better after taking my dose.

I have been tapering Ativan, and because it has such a short half life I was having inter-dose withdrawal symptoms. Jelly Baby made a suggestion that maybe splitting up the doses several times a day was perhaps not proving much therapeutic value - since each dose was such a tiny amount of the drug. So I started just taking one dose at night, and that really helped me. I have inter-dose symptoms, but they are endurable. I'm at .375 mg once before bed. And I do sleep pretty well.
