Valium in Scotland on BBC iPlayer

Hi Everyone,

I'm not sure whether people outside the UK will be able to view this.

If you can watch, it shows how deep people can actually go into a benzo addiction.

It makes my habit and I would think the habit of most other people seem very mild indeed.

It's not easy to watch - maybe take a look when you aren't feeling too low.

It's so heartbreaking to watch this!  It's bad enough for us who only took this drug as prescribed but to watch this abuse is horrifying to me - it fills me with sorrow.  I have no words to be honest - just dreadful!

I was truly shocked when I saw this.

The amount the pore folks were taking was unbelievable and the state that they ended up in was painful to watch.

Trying to taper from that dosage would be very difficult and i don't think they guys in the program would have the self control.

Going C/T from 100's of mg of Valium doesn't bear thinking about.
