> I constantly think about it. Like today I can't even type. I feel like robot man. I'm thinking in slow motion. I'm definitely afraid of meds. No question about it. The only ones I trust are benzos and they are letting me down now too. Fondly, Phillipa
Hi Phillipa,
It sounds like the Valium is causing some depression? this is common and has happened to me. Its due to valium causing lowered dopamine in the Nucleus Acumbens part of the brain, and is why Valium is strongly contraindicated in Monothreapy for depression, (can worsen toward suicidal tendencies thinking). Perhaps lowering or stopping for a while? and drinking Coffee would be a help?
The best
