Lorazepam is an anti-anxiety agent under the general category of “benzodiazepines”, or “benzos,” meaning “mild tranquilizers,” used for the relief of anxiety and, sometimes, to relieve insomnia. Often it is prescribed to calm people with mania / schizophrenia, or given intravenously as a sedative to help patients ease the anxiety that frequently is found with withdrawal symptoms. It has less of an effect on the liver then other benzodiazepines, making it a good choice for patients who are going through rehab and taking anti-abuse drugs.

an anti-anxiety med that relaxes you to the max. although you do not trip or hallucinate from it, you can get super high to the point where you can't remember how to spell certain words and you forget your own name. It's also a short-term memory eraser so the next day you won't remember shit.

but it is super potent and dangerous, so, you've been warned.
