    I'm sorry to hear about your mum and the tragic way you found her. You're doing amazing to be two years sober. That is a very high dose to be put on straight away. I was on trazadone but only on 100mg to take in the evening and it knocked me out. It didn't help for my anxiety during the day. I had 2mg diazepam tablets and they would help a lot with my anxiety so if you have 5mg then just one of this will really help, don't take more than they reccomended.
