Valiums kind of tricky in that it has a really long half life, and can stay in your blood for up to 200 hours. I've also gone 3-4 days without taking benzos and the only thing I noticed was a bit of a hard time sleeping, I've heard the horror stories about withdrawal but I guess I'll see what it's like for me.
