Murphy,

Cold turkeying off of Valiums or any benzodiazepine is not wise. Ask any pharmacist. Been there, done that. These are psychoactive drugs that linger in the system for a very long time. Unlike opiate or cociane addicts and alcoholics, chances are not good that you will be up and running in week. My informed suggestion, if any medical staff suggests anything other than slow taper, run and do not look back. That is unless you have already tried slow tapering and it is clear you do not have the discipline to do it. Then all you can do is roll the dice...
