30mg per day isnt excessive for severe anxiety - the data sheet says between 4 and 40mg perr day, and thats conservative compared to the newer benzos like Xanax
Diazepam is an interesting drug, in that it has a biphasic half life, where it has a half life of about 6 hours in the serum, then about 100 hours in the body fat...... so when you first start taking it, it has a short half life, which gets gradualy longer, until after a couple of weeks, the half life excedes 24 hours, and its possible to take the entire dose at bedtime, so, after a week or two, switching to twice daily dosing shouldnt be an issue
