Valium, was used to relieve my pain after a minor surgery. The drowsiness was very strong and I suffered from short memory loss

It is really good for suppressing the cough at times. I kind of flinch when drinking it down though.

Holistic Benefits
I have taken lithium Carbonate in different variations since 1979 for the treatment of bipolar. Each time I chose to go off it for any reason I had problems and resumed. This has by far been my saving grace to allow me to live a normal life. Any benefits far outweigh the side effects.

I no longer use Risperdal or any other anti-psychotic drugs, never enjoyed taking it affected me more for the worse, than for the good.

Holistic Benefits
The first few days I took Trileptal I felt "drunk" but that vanished within the first week. Cognitive side effects such as severely not being able to remember words and short term memory loss were severe the first few months, but tapered off so that after the first 6 months I wasn't and am still not sure if it's the Trileptal or getting older (45) that's causing the now mild effects.
