Taking 10mg of diazepam at bedtime can help prevent the syndrome you describe, where you take a pill and feel better, and get ciinstant reinforcement of the nend for pills - taken at bedtime, diazepam excerts an effect for 24 hours, so you feel calm all the next day, without that feeling of a need for another pill etc. Taken in a single dose it can take a coupl of days to sart working fully (levels in the body need to stabalise)
Ask your doc for 5mg dizaepam tabs x 50 and take 2 at bedtime. When you have 3 or 4 pills left, reduce it to one at bedtime.
