I actually had an appoimtment with my Psychiatrist yesterday afternoon and I asked him the very same question about combining Benzo's with Valerian that I had posed recently on the med board in the thread that I directed you to in my above post.
My Pdoc advised me that it should be perfectly safe to combine Valerian with Benzo's. He told me that Valerian and Benzo's actually have similar effects on your central nervous system but that the effects do differ in very subtle ways so that these two substances can actually produce very beneficial synergistic effects when they are combined. However when you try the combination it is imperative to "listen to your own body" so that you can adjust the doseages you take according to your own individual reactions and circumstances.PLUS....don't forget to try the phosphatidylserine!!
I wish you all the best
