I've taken a wide assortment of prescription drugs like valium, librium, ativan, and xanax. My problem now is that I can't find a doctor willing to prescribe them.
I prefer valium. Short-acting ativan was nothing but trouble for me. I took it "as needed" but after awhile, I needed more and more, and couldn't go 6 hours without it. I had to rehab off ativan twice.
Librium is long-acting and not as flashy but a far smoother ride. But all of these can become habit forming. Not so much psychologically addictive but the body will develop a dependency.
