Hope you are hanging in there.  I know it is tough, but you are 1/2 way through the physical w/d don't turn back now.  The valium question....well if you take it longer than a few weeks, you may have to taper down to come off of it.  Just take it for as little time as needed you should be fine.  If you are still taking it 2 wks from now, you may find you're trading one drug for another.  Hang in there, I know the hydro is talking to you and wanting you to take some but don't do it!

I will try my best, but I'm a full on addict, I'm so scared, now I'm worried about the Valium. I guess theirs no easy way around this. The worst part is that I can function a as a human being, also I cant let anyone know about this.
