*g* I personally luuuurve diazapam.. its one of the few meds that have ever helped me (only ever takenas an emergency over very short time - 3 days max) but I won't take them due to their addiction level, and thats on my med notes, so it also won't be prescribed for me... How tempting it will be to be able to buy them in such quantity over the counter!!!

Valium is rapidly taken up into the CNS, so it "hits" very quicky. (Its effects only last a fraction as long as its half-life and those of its main active metabolite would suggest because it's redistributed throughout the body soon thereafter.)
