I have been using diazepam at 10mg for weeks last year for the purpose of killing the effects of stimulants which i take for ADHD and it worked perfectly everytime. When i did my tolerance break of stims it was also a break from diazepam, and haven't experienced any withdrawals from it really, no withdrawals from ritalin either. Only amphetamines gave me withdrawals when i stopped.
The thing is, I've been reading on the internet that benzos are one of the most brain damaging drugs when used longterm and this terrified me cause the use of diazepam is seen as very normal in my European country, quite benign like ibuprofen is almost, didn't even know people used it recreationally until browsing about it od drug related sub reddits and this forum.
My problem currently is that im using ritalin but without diazepam cause of the brain damage fear and my sleep has become a wreck from the ritalin aftereffects, prominently the anxiety and body discomfort, diazepam always fixed this for me.
Is it fine if i use just 10mg every night this spring and summer cause i have loads of finals and midterms and need to get my sleep in balance.
