I know these drugs are best if not used longterm but what if your anxiety is so severe that nothing else seems to help? I have tried all the non drug things. I have also been thru 2 horrible benzo detoxes...xanax and klonopin. I took klonopin for over a decade and xanax for 8 or 9 years i think.

My question is ....is there anyone here who has been on valium longterm? You don't have to warn me about all the dangers of benzos. I know all about tolerance and the addiction. I simply wish to know is there anyone here who has opted to use valium longterm on a daily basis and what has the experience been like for you.

Thanks for any responses.
