Two issues to consider in the Xanax vs. Ativan vs. Klonopin comparisons are which of them gets you closest to your authentic self, and reinforcement.
By authentic self I mean the you you would be without the anxiety that causes you to need medication. As opposed to simply feeling better due to some sort of artificial "high."
Reinforcement issues are the conscious "liking" of a drug that might lead to taking more due to the liking. Xanax might be the worse for that, with Ativan less, and Klonopin not at all.
