"I was given 2 pills of this drug prior to a dental procedure, the one I took the night before my procedure gave me the worst panic attack I have ever had. I thought I was going to end up in the hospital it was so scary, I will never take this drug again. I will stick with my normal klonopin that doesn't do this to me."

"Was prescribed Valium 2mg to increase sleep quality as I was sleeping with my fists clenched and clenching my jaw. It seemed to put me to sleep but I noticed that I would still wake up a number of times through the night and worse; I was so irritable and angry the next day that everything frustrated me. Only took it for 2 nights. Dr felt that an increased dose would only worsen the symptoms the next day."

"Take 2mg at night to help get to sleep. Works well but leaves me with a "hangover" for a few hours every morning."

"For instant light sedation Valium is the number one choice. It is fast acting even in small dosages like 10mg but for full effect 20mg is preferred. Though it can lead to unwanted dependency after a few weeks so beware."
