Why does 10mg diazepam not cause relaxation or drowsiness? i'm 18 and weigh 85kg. i can take 10mg and feel like normal. why is this?

Med reaction: People have very different reactions to these meds and different doses. If your prescribing doc gave that dose they may feel that it is a good amount to take the edge off the anxiety. Would you have felt much worse anx. without it? Many people responsibly use these meds as needed to stop panic attacks. But the long term resolution(yes it is possible!) is effective anxiety therapy. I recommend EMDR
