Yes, Tony, you are right - Clonazepman (Klonopin) is indeed a bezodiazepine but quite a bit different from the Xanax/Valium branch. Xanax and Valium are fast acting (and with short half-lives if I'm not mistaken) and are highly addictive; Clonazepam is much slower acting and is less addictive. I've been taking a low dose of Clonazepam for years and up it occasionally during a bad bout of anxiety.
