I wouldn't recommend Ativan, Xanax, Valium, etc. especially if you don't normally take them. They can have the same affect as alcohol as far as depressing the central nervous system. The high stress situation is your body at its height of awareness. If you are needing to use your firearms, being under the influence of a benzodiazepine is not what you want. Just like driving under the influence.
