I agree about clowns being best for work & social situations. 25 years on them for me so of course the effect isn't noticeable. But it sure is when I don't take.

Not a fan of Diaz- I need a ridiculous amount to notice it.

And the green stuff? Was a huge fan as youngster but caused me a lot of issues and now it causes ridiculous anxiety.

 I share your pain with the green stuff it makes virtually suicidal these days.  Lorazepam is the best Benzo going for me.  Clonaz just leaves me feeling wrecked for 24 hours and gives me terrible drowsiness

My family doctor had me on Valium but when I went to the psychiatrist he switched me to Lorazepam. Said the half life was much shorter which he thought was better for me overall. I've heard varying opinions on that. He doesn't know about my chronic back pain, so he's just treating depression I guess. That dosage is not nearly enough, but I've had to make it work...until this site. I'm giving up on going through the same long history with doctor after doctor with no results. I don't know why my doctor knowing my chronic pain issues, pks being discontinued and bi-polar/depression haven't prescribed a higher dose, but he hasn't. It really pisses me off because it's like he doesn't take me seriously. I remember I told him once, "what do I have to do to get someone to understand the issues I'm trying to deal with...hurt myself?" He just ignored me, but that's honestly the way I've felt. I've been prescribed Trileptal, Topamax, Depakote... Didn't see much if any change with those. I think relief from my back pain would take care a lot of my depression issues. I think those arise from my constant battle with lower back pain.

Anyone have any experience or thoughts? lorazapam is personally my least favorite benzo. I dont get much benefit from it like I do valium/xanax/ klonopin etc. I ended up needeing to take far more to notice any benefit which was never the case w any of the mentioned above.
