Still tapering Valium and Stablon. So far, so good

I cut the dose of Stablon by 1 tablet every 10 days. The worst of it seems to have been the cut from 4 tablets to 3 tablets a day. Going to 2 tablets a day didn't cause much except for some tingling in the head and lightheadedness for 1 day. Otherwise I feel fine.

I forgot to take Valium at midnight, two days in a row and still feel calm. Withdrawal from Valium can take several days to develop due to the long half-life, but I hope I do well on only 5mg 3x/day. :-)

Perhaps the long light therapy sessions are helping because I don't feel depressed. 3 or 3 1/2 hours a day of light therapy.

12 April 2010 (day 4)
06.00 diazepam 5mg, tianeptine 12.5mg
12.00 diazepam 5mg
18.00 diazepam 5mg, tianeptine 12.5mg

I think you should do fine with the valium cut .5 of xanax from l.5 last night added a bit of valium for the long half life. So far so good. Phillipa
