If so, why? What dosage were you on and how long did it take you to finally not feel any ill effects from withdrawal?
I'm slowly tapering from 1.5 to one mg and I think my doc will approve. He told me a few months back that I could use it PRN but at the time I was very hesitant to take his advice
Even in pre psychiatry days I would only take 10 mg Valium occasionally and it was a miracle drug for me.
My goal right now is to get on the lowest effective dose of all of my meds gradualy one at a time and still have a therapeutic effect. That should be everyone's goal. And I know it is for many.
Thanks Scott for your continuing support and ideas to help others. You're a standup guy.
I went to ask a patient yesterday and one man was taking 4 mg for sleep. Isn't that equal to approximately 80 mg of diazepam?
