Edit
Hi I tried valium it did nothing to improve my voice and in fact I would say it made me feel very agitated. Ativan I did find helped as it relaxes the respiratory muscles but if I take it for more than a week I start to feel really druged up and longer periods you do get nasty withdrawal symptoms (I did). As a med to take prn (if you need to talk for long periods sometimes) it does help. It is on the drugs used for dystonia list. Hope this helps. krissie
