Alternative to Meds Center ( ATMC ) is an authority on providing sustainable Ativan alternatives help for people seeking solutions other than remaining dependent on Ativan.
Do you ever wonder why Ativan doesn’t offer long term relief?
Ativan, like most psycho-pharmaceuticals, treats symptoms, not root causes. People taking Ativan often get to a point where their current prescription is no longer working for them due to chemical dependency, tolerance, and structurally altered nervous systems. Their doctor or psychiatrist often increases their dose but the same problem is bound to happen again. This is because Ativan users often consistently need to increase their dose to relieve the problems listed above; tolerance, chemical dependency, and Ativan protracted withdrawal. This is a vicious cycle and gets more difficult the longer it goes on. There are effective Ativan alternatives treatments, with the most successful being the identification and correction of the real underlying causes of anxiety.
These Ativan statistics show how addictive and damaging Ativan can be:
“It is more difficult to withdraw people from benzodiazepines than it is from heroin” - Professor Malcolm H Ladder. The Treatment Episode Data Set Report ( TEDS ) shows that during 2011, there were 60,200 individuals receiving substance abuse treatment who were addicted to benzodiazepines.  Between 1995 and 2002, benzodiazepine-related ER visits involving drug abuse increased 41%.  In 2002, clonazepam and alprazolam were the most associated benzodiazepines in ER visits for drug abuse. 
Don’t allow yourself to become a statistic. ATMC offers all natural Ativan alternatives that can help with your symptoms.
What’s causing my mental health symptoms?
Have you ever considered how the environment can personally affect your mental health? The foundation of environmental medicine is that what we are exposed to in our environment and what we eat has an effect on our health. Environmental medicine examines the role of toxins, pesticides, air pollutants, heavy metals, and other environmental factors. This way of approaching medicine allows an exploration of pertinent interactions between your health and your environment, and how the environment is contributing to mental illness, disease, and addiction.
Toxins are among the underlying causes of anxiety!
As toxins accumulate in the brain and nervous system over the course of our lives they become neurotoxic. These toxins can create the effect of an over-stimulated nervous system. Pesticides are a good example. Pesticides are designed to kill insects, including grasshoppers, and function in the following way: the toxin permeates into the exoskeleton, and finds it way to the nervous system. Pesticides cause acetylcholine channels to stay open, not allowing these channels to properly close. Acetylcholine is a stimulating neurotransmitter and will make the grasshopper jump. Consistent release of acetylcholine puts the grasshopper into a catatonic state and eventually death. This is how pesticides kill pests.
Accumulated exposure to this toxin occurs in a very similar fashion for humans, as the human nervous system also uses acetylcholine for stimulation. Other toxins include heavy metals, mold, mycotoxins, MSG, aspartame, and thousands of other chemicals found in processed foods and hygiene products have similar effects. Through medical testing and constant patient monitoring at Alternative to Meds Center, we often identify an accumulation of neurotoxins over-stimulating the nervous system of individuals with anxiety.
Anxiety, Depression and Digestion
Digestive issues such as slow digestion, leaky gut, and IBS are prominently associated with anxiety and panic disorders. The issues affecting digestion don’t necessarily start in your stomach, they can start in your brain. The same neurotransmitters that alter your mood, such as serotonin, play a role in sending signals to your gut. Low serotonin can result in anxiety (and depression), but depression and anxiety can also result in low serotonin. This means that the normal messengers travelling into your body from your brain are potentially being created at a lower rate, resulting in digestion issues.
