Can't you add back a wee tiny bit of that benzo...or are you on the way down still? Perhaps take the withdraw slower? I dont know if scullcap can be implicated there...how do you mean? it works on benzo receptors. unisom im not sure how that would help valium withdrawal.
Wait it I guess with any added stimulation. Sorry to hear your pain.
I can look up melatonin for benzo withdrawal but ive not heard of its use like that. It has a calming effect ya sure...will initiate sleep. Dont take more than about 1mg though (increased risk of headache etc)...i know the caps are like 3mg each but thats usually way to much for people. One study I read stated a range of 0.1mg to 1mg lol way less. Any more will add sides.
Keep me updated eh...hope you get well. we could all use a wellness in here
