hi i take 2mg when i really need to it relaxes me i have had them nearly 2 months and onlly took 4 in that time they are just a comfort that they are there if needed

Diazepam is a very addictive drug; nothing good about it.
I would avoid it if I were you.

i think ist a personal preference to be honest !! i personally dont like it cause i feel sick the day after and it only relaxes me for half hour - i dont want to up the dose as im trying to come off all meds but if it works for you then ace go with it xx

As mentioned before, I would only take it IF ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. You really don;t want to know what a withdrawal from Benzodiazepines is like. Be very careful!!!

Hi, I'm a bit concerned as I didn't realize you can get addicted to diazepam, my son has been given them by the hospital last Friday, he's been the Dr this evening and he has give him 28 of them along with a 100 trimodal pain killers. He has severe neck pain they said his neck is caught in a constant spasm and he needs the diazepam to relax the mussel and the pain killer is to kill the pain. He's on 5mg diazapam 3 times aday, has any one got any advice about this. by the way my son is 21.

iam on 2mg of diazepam and hate them,i suffer from panic attacks and now iam totally addicted to them,iam grumpy,depressed and angry because of them,i would not reccomend them for anxiety or panic as it will only make you feel worse if you ever want to come off them,its a vicious circle,please think before u decied to take these tablets,i was only prescibed one a day which has lead to me takin them when ever i felt like it,its crazy and very easy to get carried away,they make me feel relaxed for a few mins then grumpy,not the route to go down,trust me i know takecare all

Be careful with any drug. It's only a quick fix. I prefer excersie and therapy rather than drugs of any kind.

diazepam worked well for me, i took small doses when needed

i never became dependant ont he drug at all, i used it well and it worked well for me

it didnt cure my anxiety but it did help me get through anxious periods

i was prescribed diazepam buy my doc and didnt need a regular prescription, i just requested some when needed and always kept one or two to help me through a really bad period

while you have the diazepam, look at other ways that will help you long term, can you get access to a therapist, do you meditate, do you exercise, have a good diet, have fun time in your life, do you know eft,
for lots of people its a combination of these sort of things that help them become anxiety free

my story echoes souls story exactly,i only have the tablet if i absolutely feel like cracking up, i like to think i have them for a bad anxiety time.
