Me too I've wondered the same thing. But years ago I cold turkeyed valium and alchohol . I put myself in the hospital to give them up. But I was in my 20's knowing nothing and had just had a baby two months ago and I thought thank God I'll finally get to stay in bed and get some sleep. She's been transferred to a hospital as she was crying 24 hours a day. That was before they said not the drink or take meds when pregnant so I'm sure it was with drawal for her. But the hospital said you get up make your bed and attend groups. I figured I was better off at home so left with dire warnings that I would seize. I didn't but lay on the couch for the two weeks she was in the hospital and felt like I was walking on a boat rocking the whole two weeks. But the happy ending is she came home I went back on only 5mg of valium and I was calm again and she settled down. Love Phillipa ps I'd been on a higher dose before
