Yeah I think "anti-psychotic" sounds a lot more scary than it actually is too. A lot of people are on stuff like that who aren't living in padded rooms.

On uses of Diazepam:

I'm thinking it's the Valium stuff.

They did it a week early to make sure that the dose they used would make her amnesiatic, and then did an injection before the ceremony so that she wouldn't remember it or remember any bad parts of it.

Or something.

If they wanted her to forget something, they should have given her the non CR type of ambien, like a 2X or 3X dose. It would be a lot more effective than your run of the mill valium... with valium, you're not really insured that the recipient will forget things, it would have to be a high dose. And if that's what was going on, I don't see why they wouldn't use something stronger and right in the vein for that matter.
edit- I'm going with the anemia theory I think.

but why would she be getting IM injections of diazepam? its so easily absorbed orally. and there is very little reason to believe that its given on a weekly schedule, its more of a "as needed" drug. Plus its usually avoided in patients under 18.

fyi the point of IM injections is to make a drug resovoir which slowly releases into the system. thats why it really good route for hormones and vaccine.

Yeah, Diazepam is apprently much easier to get orally and works much better that way.

So that leaves anemia or olanzapine. Or other options that we haven't thought of.

I really like the idea that the drugs are causing her to be lethargic and unenthusiastic. I have known people on anti psychotics and they complain it makes them feel "out of it" all the time.

I really dont think she has multiple personalities and really disagree with any theory that has anything to do with her mentioning Cassie. If there was really something there Daniel would be on it for us. His character knows more than any of us and we should follow his lead.

I wonder if the creators just put the shots in there, and were just waiting for us to do the medical research for them since apparently we're all complete nerds XD

Okay, it was funny in my head.

I don't know anything about the Creators, so if one of them has medical training, then it's more likely that gauze instead of bandaid is inentional and not a slip-up.
