"valium worked wonders for me when i realized that my anxiety had been making me a shut-in with a low quality of life. aside from developing an insatiable appetite at first, it seemed like a miracle. example: i took a valium before flying and could not find my luggage in baggage claim. previously, i would have been shaking, crying and sweating. instead, i confidently walked over to customer service and learned that my bag will come when the next flight arrives. self-inflicted meltdown averted.

it&#039;s long half-life, however, can be a blessing and bad. it lasts practically all day, but that also means it makes me a bit drowsy and lazy all day as well."
