Hey, has anyone been on Valium/Diazepam? If so, what did you think? Would you recommend? What did it make you feel like?
My dr has prescribed me with diazepam because I keep suffering from really severe panic attacks for no apparent reason and it's really effecting the quality of my life. For instance, I'm turning down social events in fear that I'll go and have a panic attack and make a fool of myself. (I'm a 21 year old male and most of my friends see me as outgoing and a good laugh, so the last thing I want is for them to see me having a panic attack).
I don't suffer from depression or anxiety. I just get these crazy panic attacks. (Heart racing, body shaking, blurry vision, sudden overwhelmed with panic and confusion, feel really disconnected from reality, lasts 5 - 30 minutes).
I've read up on the drug and it's had some good reviews but I've also seen that it is hard to withdraw from and you cannot drive whilst the drug is in your system as it can cause tiredness and muscle weakness.
