Failed taper?

2021-06-10 16:50:38
While tapering Ativan 1 mg one day I decreased dose by 25% not knowing much since not many doctors are cooperating in this. Next day I had severe anxiety and hallucinations. I reverted back to slow tapering but now I am having diarrhea. What should I do now?? Since my psychiatrist is not helping in this I'm seeking help on practo.
