I've tried hugh number of benzos (Alprazolam (Xanax),Bentazepam,Bromazepam, Clobazam,Chlordiazepoxide(Librium),Clorazepat (Trenxene),Clonazepam (Rivotril/Klonopin),Clobazam,Delorazepam ,Diazepam (Valium),Estazolam,Flunitrazepam (Rohypnol),Ketazolam,Lormetazepam,Lorazepam (Ativan),Midazolam,Nitrazepam,Oxazepam (Serax),Triazolam ,Tetrazepam,Tofisopam,Zopiclone,Zolpidem)....to name some!....
And regarding getting " high" I think Xanax and Valium have the most effect.
- Regarding dependency , the most difficult ones were Xanax and Ativan
_ Regaqrding getting off them, the BEST BZ for sub. is ,without a doubt BROMAZEPAM (Lexotanil,Lexomil,Lexotan..), that was the one that saved me from the other BZ......It is the middle - of - the road BZ :
It has a tame effect without highs
It has the least cognitive,sedative and memory impairment effect
It has amiddle hafe-life (approx.20 hours)
It has inter mediate potency..not very potent like klonopin or least potent like Oxazepam
iWithdrawal from it was always very easy and you can go to a very low dose (1.5mg)- I agree that both Librium and Valium come second and third in the list of substituted BZs
-Anyway,this my personal experience,and I welcome any comment regarding Benzos and AD's...oh! and by the way,Xanax taken by itselfe does not give"antidepressant effect" ; and is no where near something like the gold standard Imipramine(tofranil)..all it gives is a buzz and a high and more escalation and dependency....
Regards.
