So I used to be addicted to diazepam but now I get prescribed then which is good because they are the only thing that has ever helped me. For the past 4 months I get prescribed 10mg a day for 2 weeks then I have a two weeks break to avoid addiction. Now I don't know if any of you get diazepam but I generally take them as I please/need rather then 10mg a day which does basically not much help. The only problem is then I run out about a week and a half into the month which leaves me to 3 weeks of hell. So I usually end up buying my own which is a pain when your in a bedsit and broke already. But atleast it helps.
It helps you relax, I have taken 2.5-5mg at random times throughout the year and I found it better than what my doctor originally told me to do which was take one every day. I'm not addicted even though it's been 6 years because I take them very rarely and the small dose still works. It hasn't helped DP/DR directly though.
