Ativan is used in many cases as a sedative for patients. I've also read that it can be very habit forming.

It is used as a short term treatment for treating excessive anxiety.

Our doctor gave these to my wife for about a week when our son passed away. I wouldn't take anything because I have such an addictive personality but I sure came close. I still have cravings and I have to fight my addiction every day, especially when I'm stressed.
