Hi,
I am on day 18 of 10mg Citalopram and my doctor prescribed diazepam to help me through the worst side effects. I haven't needed to take any during the day, but I always wake up around 4am and I usually take 2x2mg tablets which enables me to get back to sleep for another couple of hours.
However this morning I didn't wake up until 5am so took one 2mg diazepam and fell back to sleep, but when I woke up again at 8am I just couldn't keep my eyes open, I felt so tired and drowsy, sort of "stoned" if you like. I lay in bed until 11.30am when I managed to drag myself up but I'm still feeling odd, drowsy and not quite with it.
I really don't want to get addicted to benzos, could I already be addicted to them as I've been taking them every night for 18 days!
