• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Does anyone know how long 2.5 mg of valium last. Imean the effects that relieve the anxiety not the half life. MY doc gives me 5 mg tabs and I'm only supposed to take 2.5 twice daily but I've been cheating myself and my doc. I've been taking more than I supposed to and I always feel a convition for it and on top of that I I don't have enough for the rest of the week .I do have a addictive personality. but I don't take the meds to get high just to reduce anxiety. but for now on I'm going to take it like I'm perscibed so please pray for me andany imput on this would be appreciated.

dabro,
prayed for you.....please keep us posted on how you are doing!
I know sometimes we feel so desperate for relief that we do things like taking too much medication.
Please remember, the relief is only for a short time until the medication wears off or is gone. Please take the amount that is prescribed so you won't hurt yourself.
dabro, Jesus loves you....
