Xanax vs Ativan

Posted by vic80 on July 18, 2010, at 17:40:54

I have been on Ativan 0.5 mg since 3 months. I feel i could probably try Xanax.
How different are the 2 in their over all purpose efficacy and use? I found Xanax 0.5 mg which i took only once last night to be b bit sedating. Does the sedative effect neutralize after a few days? Have not found Ativan to ever make me feel sedated and would provide me good mental clarity.
The reason i would like to make a switch is to tap the much talked mood elevating effects of Xanax and its quick onset.
Another general query abt Benzos i have is whether they invariably cause mood blunting effect and apathy. And their overall impact on creativity and productive output.
Much thanks
Vic
