My advice would be maybe explain that you tried to go off benzos before and started to relapse with symptoms. Pdocs that use beznos tend to like to use klonopin more, so if you haven't tried that, that could be an option. I do think its kind of weird that you take Diazepam 3x a day. That is one of the longer lasting benzos (84 hour half life I think) so I think you should be able to take that just once a day (say 15mg at night) and have no difference in relief. It sounds like Pdoc is just doing his job (there must be a certain population that does better off benzos or something like buspar).
