This is a highly addictive drug that is to be used short term only. It only takes 15 to 20 minutes to start working but it is very short acting as well. Your body will start having physical cravings for it such as shakes if it is craving the drug. Talk to your doctor. There are other good alternatives. The benzos like this drug are hell to come off of if addicted to!

I've never had much luck with drugs. I found that cognitive therapy is far more effective. Drugs don't cure anything either. Cognitive therapy cured my clinical (suicidal) depression (it began with anxiety) in a few weeks after nearly five years of drugs and doctors failed attempts. I ended up in a hospital for a suicide attempt and was given a book that literally saved my life:

It could take a couple of weeks.
Let me also suggest something else, AS WELL as staying on your medication. Have you ever tried medical acupuncture? There are M.D.'s now who are doing this treatment, it is painless, and it WORKS!!! Talk to your doctor about it.

Diazepam is a highly addictive drug, and it could be that your shakes are due to withdrawal rather than anxiety.
But to answer your question, about 20 minutes.

Minutes. I took it and it made me feel & look like i was pissed out of my head within minutes. It certainly helps the anxiety until it wears off.

Every medicine reacts different on each human being! I had to use it for my child when she was 2 years old and it helped in seconds.
