Will someone please help me out? Valium

[bBarry]

I need some help. I have tapered Valium over the past few years off and on. I am down to 2mg starting last night, stayed at 2.5mg for a couple weeks. Where would you go from here? Feel free to message me.

I only dropped 1/2mg yesterday and am anxious to wrap it up. I wonder if this taper is worth going through hell for months? If the Doctor wanted me to quit at 5mg would 2mg be too much? I believe he would have given me another heart attack as miserable as this taper has been. Atthebeach has helped a lot but unable contact. A couple others have helped as well. Thanks. Now at the end it's getting real tired.

Please don't say you can't give taper advise. All the help I have gotten was from here. message me. No Doctor will help me taper around here. They said they get people off it in a week in the hospital. I'm not in a hospital. Besides, their long term success rate stinks. The Doctor wanted me to go from 15mg, to 10mg for a week, then 5mg for a week, then stop. You can't hurt me as bad as that Doctor wanted to hurt me. I didn't think he was right since I had heart attack in 2011 and got a stent in my heart. Another heart Cath in 2012 that was unnecessary. It was a new Doctor that wanted to stop my Valium after 12 years on it and my Doctor moved away. Was Rx'd 40mg a day at first. I didn't take 40mg a day long at all, I did take 30 for some time, then 20mg, to 15 a year ago.

Any help will really be appreciated. Ready to stop.

Barry- With your cardiac status and medically history it would be foolish for anyone to give you advice about what you should do. Almost everything I can think of would be stressful to you so I won't take the risk of offering any solution.

You've done so well getting down to this small amount.
