You are very unlikely to become dependent on diazepam that quickly, especially with such a small dose, so no need to taper off.
The irony is this is supposed to help my tense muscles and breathlessness yet the list of warnings says don't take if you have breathing difficulties.
This might be an issue at high doses, but not at 2mg. But avoid alcohol while taking it as it can also affect breathing and there can be a synergistic effect at high doses.
The list of warnings scares me as I do not know if I have some of the ailments listed to avoid.
Your body is well versed in how to handle diazepam. It is one of the naturally occurring benzodiazepines with small quantities found in all foods. Sprouted grains and potatoes are particularly rich in it and its metabolites.
