I get physically ill before dental appointments, and I can never sleep the night before because I get so worried. My dentist gave me Valium (10 mg) to take tomorrow night before my appointment on Friday. He told me not to take it the morning of the appointment because I won't be able to drive myself there. I'm getting home late Thursday night after a concert (probably midnight), and I was wondering how long the effects would last. My appointment is at 8 am on Friday, so I'll be up by 7:30.
I was wondering if I'll be able to drive by then if I take it that late the night before. I read that it has a really long half life and that people get hang over effects... Wondering if I'll be calm in the morning or completely out of it and half asleep.
Has anyone else taken Valium just the night before, and were the anti-anxiety effects still there in the morning? I hope that it still has some sort of calming effect in the morning, but worried that my driving abilities will be impaired...
