currently i take diazepam for anxiety and shakes. Out of all the benzo's i've noticed its the most general, in its effects, it's very good for GAD ('generalized' anxiety disorder) it has some muscle relaxant, but the thing is....diazepam only it does for me is produce a calm or relief, other benzos like lorazepam and alrazolam had antidepressant, alrazolam had mild euphoric feelings. I was on xanax for 3 years, i took around 6mg. And acutally, i didnt use it for anxiety, i used it after a stress dday, i would come home and take it. Xanax makes sleepier, more tranquil calm. That's why it's preferred over the other benzos. Ativan just ... i remember i was taking court documents to working for family, i took 2mg of ativan, and it was like all this stress and dread lifted off me, i was relaxed in better mood. Diazepam have to say, is good med to take during the day for generalized anxiety. There's nothing special about it. It doesn't improve mood, only in higher doses which produces muscle relaxation. I don't see why people, or doctors see it as a abuse drug, yes you can over take it when for anxiety, but it does not have recreational properties, it's just a calm and relief.
I've taken clonazepam, that stuff is potent, if you need to get to sleep, take klonopin, but it is potent stuff, and it made me depressed. I've heard testimonies, stevie nicks was hooked on klonopin (what i read). But that stuff is not euphoric, it actually depresses mood. potent anti anxiety med, and also sleep. It treats mania, so it slows down neurotransmitters. Makes u depressed or feel dull
Anyone here have any comparison stories?
