Probably not: unless you suffer from severe liver problems, valium should not be a problem by itself. Unless prescribed at this dose level by your Dr, this relatively high dose should be reviewed based on your needs, and possibly tapered down slowly if there is no clear indication for it. Please consult your prescribing physician on how to proceed. Valium is not a good long term sleeping pill for many reasons.

No, but: Your concern should be directed toward why it is that you need such an extraordinarily high dose; and how repeated dosings like this lead to serious addiction, as well as other side effects. What else are you taking? How much are you drinking? What other medical or psychological needs are driving such a high dose? Speak to your presciber.
