How long have you been taking 50mg daily?

Are they legitimate or illegal knock-offs? (which usually don't contain the correct dose.)

Do a slow taper, dropping 5mg a week, or less (SOMEONE ELSE PLEASE VERIFY; I AM NOT A DOCTOR.)

You won't really be able to drink during your taper as that will fuck with your GABA receptors and this is what it's all about: getting them back to normal.

Diazepam or any benzo withdrawals are shit, but you MUST go through them if you're gonna quit. They don't have to be that bad though, if you do a slow taper.

Exercise and sex can help with the anxiety and depression, especially if you have a lady friend to stroke you and tell you it's all alright.

If you are working, then ask for holidays for the worst parts.

Or (RECOMMENDED): go and see a doctor.

Best of luck mate; mind over matter and all that!
