User Reviews for diazepam oral

take 10mg 3x a day does absolutely nothing for tension headaches for me

I have found that diazepam has worked not only for my extreme anxiety, but it has also done wonders with horrible repetitive dreams I have had over and over again. I was also a addict addicted to opiates and have been in recovery for the last two years successfully with the help of just my little wonder drug (diazepam) has helped in so many different ways. I was only originaly perscribed (diazepam) for my anxiety, but it has helped me with many other concerns in my life and if anyone has these symptoms, I would highly recommend you to talk to your doctor, about getting on a (diazepam) regiment. Thank you.Read More Read Less

THIS drug makes me very or should I say too relaxed. Talking gets a little slurred and sleep for 6 or 7 hours. Don't reconmmend if you have small children.

Not working due to tolerance

I'm taking it illegally for my panic attacks... mainly so i can figure out what is causing these attacks and figure out a non-pharmaceutical way to help myself so i can become a Naval-Corpsman in the near future. Wish me luck...

once in system for about a week or 2-sleepiness subsides

I have Been takeing diazapam for over 40 years, at first it was perscibed for a subsitute for Ritalin and later for mussle spazams. And now for many different reasons. I have never had a bad reaction, (do not drink on this) I think that even in non brand form it is bar far the best and least expensive way to get a "great nights sleep" the cost is around 20 cents a pill VS. 6 to 10 dollars for "Lunesta or Ambian. Yeah Jerry Garcia used to take them as well. SOLD!

Stay at home dad with 4 children, all under 10. Am disabled and have more on my plate then I can handle. Stress is to much. Was scared I was going to give myself a heart attack I had major panic attacks. I take 10mg in the morning afternoon and night. Much eaiser to deal with life now. Works great. Can handle what I need to do, even if I don't get it all done.

HEAVY FATIGUE,SHORTEN ATTENTION SPAN,LOSS OF AMBITION

It calms my Anxiety and it also helps me sleep at night

Reduces muscle spas,s related to scoliosis.

i finally feel more like myself again! i've been depressed for at least 10 years, since my mom passed away. this is the first thing that has helped.

this is a great med for people like me! i no longer spend my nights tossing and turning,i feel much better in the mornings not groggy or grumpy like with other meds in the same family. and no more night terrors or cold sweats! i am a well rested,calmer,happier person for it!

Since being on diazepam and being in therapy I can honestly say I'm a recovering agoraphobic. I have been able to go into public by myself and the diazepam helps alot when some situations get a bit to much.

I've been on 10 mg per day for 40 years. Being on a low dosage for years I thought withdrawal would be relatively easy as I only take one pill a day. Last week I tried going without and I went completely out of my head after 4 days without. I gave in and took one and when I told my Dr about it she was understanding but told me I will probably be better just to continue my once a day pill forever as no one should go through benzodiazepine withdrawal. I must agree. The point is that if you use this medication for too long you may develope an addiction which may appear to be next to impossible to break. It can be done but must be done painfully slow and tapered off until one takes a very low dose every second day etc. If using this medication be prepared to possibly be on it for a while. If your using this medication on a short term basis(2 weeks) then you will be fine. It is when using this med for a month or more that the addiction is hard and can be dangerous. All that said if using this mediocation on a longer term then you will be OK as long as you don't overuse or underuse. Also remember that if your Dr puts you on this med that he or she knows the consequences and deems the use more important than the possible side effects including possible true addiction. After my attempt to quit last week I now have accepted the fact I will probably be taking my one pill a day forever. If I do reattempt withdrawal from diazepam I would get to the point where I would cut it down to a mg once evey two days and then maybe I might stand a chance. An addiction specialist explained to me that since I only take one pill a day and have been doing so for almost 40 years that I should just continue to take it as long as I do not increase my dose without approval. On the positive side this benzo may be good because of it's long half life in the body. It's benzos like Xanax one may best be avoiding as they can induce withdrawal much faster having a short half life in the body.GoodluckRead More Read Less

The free clinic stopped paying for benzo's, and I cant afford the price of Xanax without it. Things would be much worse for me if it hadnt been for this Rx written by an M.D. who actually cares.

only been takeing it for a short time and yes I'm more relaxed but still am ready to go off
