What does valium feel like? - Page 2

In an effort to get my husband to submit to an open MRI instead of the upright one (our insurance doesn't seem to be compatible with anyone in so cal that has one) I am trying to convince him to take something and try again.

His doctor called and said she would prescribe valium for him.

I've never had valium and neither has he.

He is VERY MUCH against the open MRI and VERY MUCH against being sedated for it. He says he doesn't like that feeling of being on medication "like that."

Part of this seems to be an anxiety attack at the mere mention of the MRI.

So, have any of you taken it? I've read some stuff online but I'm curious as to your particular experience as well as comparing it to being drunk, or other, ahem, mind altering things.

Anyone feel like sharing?

Or have suggestions as to how to MAKE him do it?
