diazepam is a benzodiazepine, similar to temezepam and lorazepam(ativan)
Its londer acting that the others which is why its commonly given as a three times a day dose for anxiety, short term only.
Its also used as a muscle relaxant for pain.

Some people can be knocked out by 2mg, other people find 10mgs doesnt do a lot.

When it does hit you though, its good for anxiety and getting to sleep but it can really mess with your head. i lose patches of memory and become disociated.its scary.

I'm not on these personally but my partner is and has found them very very helpful after being on about 10 different meds these are the only ones that made him really sleep well and effected mood to make it easier to tackle difficult days. The knocking out effect happens with him as well it's quite amusing as he starts talking nonsense about shoe laces and things
.

The only side effects he says he has was that he had hangover effects for the first week where he was really groggy in the morning. Also recently he has been on antibiotics and thinks they may have affected their ability to work although this may be him being mardy as he is sometimes :P
