"i&#039;ve always had problems with persistent depression since i was 14 (i&#039;m now 25) but i&#039;ve never been suicidal. it took me a couple of weeks to realise it but this medication made me suicidal! i was prescribed it for anxiety and restless legs at night, it did get me to sleep but i woke up several times through out the night. i was originally prescribed half a 5 ml tablet but had no effect until i took 2 tablets (10mg). because i didn&#039;t become suicidal immediately after taking the tablets i didn&#039;t realise this was what was causing it but after becoming sus i googled &quot;can diazepam can suicidal thoughts&quot; and sure enough there were plenty of similar complaints. i&#039;ve stopped taking it and doing much better"
