    Can I take Venlafaxine now and then?

    Could this be taken like a diazepam as and when needed?

    Definitely not. If anything it would make your anxiety worse as it tends to do when starting up. Venlafaxine doesn't have any instant effect like diazepam and you have to take it daily for weeks before it helps with anxiety.
