Valium is not the innocent "mothers little helper" of the 1950's, Valium is a serious narcotic that can be addicting. Valium is the brand name for diazepam which is a benzodiazepine in the opioids category. This simply means that Valium is a powerful depressant that slows down brain activity and triggers the reward system. Valium is prescribed for anxiety and insomnia but is very easy to abuse. Many people who are sensitive to addiction find themselves taking more than the prescribed amount of valium. This can lead to physical dependence and Valium addiction.

When a person first takes Valium they may feel euphoric, sluggish, tired and painless. Soon however after continuous use those feelings diminish. For normal users this is fine and treatment continues as prescribed. For those heading for valium addiction however the pursuit of that euphoria and that feeling of ease that comes from downing a few pills becomes an important part of the day. Problems begin because the body has an amazing ability to adapt to the effects of all drugs including Valium. For the addict this means that double or triple the dose is now necessary to accomplish what the prescribed amount used to. It is not unusual for recovery centers to have clients that are up to 20,30 or 60 or more a day habits.

Of course the consequences of handling a serious habit can ruin a life. Juggling doctors, constant trips to the emergency room and going to several pharmacies in different towns are just a few of the illegal activities that some valium dependents find themselves going through to get their pills. Many people understand from a logical view that they have a problem but cannot get past the withdrawal symptoms long enough to quit.

Since the body has adapted to a continuous supply of Valium it expects this supply to continue and has made the necessary adjustments. So when this supply is stopped because the individual recognizes the problem, the mind begins to race because the drug was slowing it down. This can cause high anxiety and at worst brain seizures. This makes it very difficult to stop on one's own without medical supervision.
