Thanks lostwander. I won't be coming off the valium for a while unless something changes drastically.

Drowsy would be nice. All it really does for me is when I hit a somewhat calm point I take half my dose and then when that kicks in (hopefully) I take the other half and that one helps me sleep. Sort of. I can't say that what I'm doing is really sleeping because it is so broken up.

It used to just make me sleepy and then 8-10 hours later I'd wake up feeling good.
With this mania it's not so good and I don't want to accidentally throw myself into withdrawl accidentally as I do not need one more problem. I imagine I'll get off it like I did before, increasing my klonopin and then reducing that to normal since it worked before.

Glad you were ok with withdrawl.
