In reply to Ativan vs Tranxene vs Xanax vs Klonopin???, posted by 3 Beer Effect on May 30, 2002, at 14:03:38
I'll drink to that.
I've taken Xanax, Ativan AND Klonopin and I can say that out of the three, the Ativan was most effective in terms of helping me with my anxieties (social, and otherwise).
The problem with Xanax was that I couldn't take it during the day. I work in an environment where I have to be alert, so I can't be dosing off as I do when I am taking Xanax.
Klonopin just kinda made me very spacey. It took a lot longer to process information in my head. Also, I get very clumsy on it - total loss of coordination.
I do not have these problems with Ativan. I feel very confident and talkative with this ready-to-take-on-the-world attitude.
If you're interested in other side facts, which may or may not make a difference in your situation, I am also taking 300mg Wellbutrin bid. My doctor may switch me to a stimulant.
