foreverdecember.. my exp with the valium (xanax and klonopin) was not good,, it may help you sleep,, but it made me not care if i drank or not. So I drank AND took it. I could not focus on not drinking because thats what the valium did,, i just didnt think it was a big deal. The valium lowers your senses, and anxiety,, so you think it maybe isnt a big deal.. If you can do it,, and i know its hard,, put the valium down for a week or so and make you decsions then.. I went cold turkey off booze and valium. Not fun.. But im sober and the fog has lifted. My head is still spinning everyday.. But i am totally clean. Good luck my friend
