what do they feel like anything different from benzo to benzo I think I already said that but also how long they last I think xanax is one of the strongest but doesn't have a long life.?

benzos generally have similar effects, although some are more hypnotic(ex. temazepam and flunitrazepam) and some are better for anxiety relief(ex. clonazepam and alprazolam). they also differ when it comes to onset speed/how quick to peak, duration/half life, memory loss, and potency by weight.

when it comes to "euphoria" benzos differ among individuals but mostly its the potent hypnotic types(usually temazepam, but also flunitrazepam, nimetazepam, and triazolam) that are rated highest in terms of euphoriant and intoxicating effects.

i for one find temazepam to be my favorite benzo, followed by clonazepam, then flunitrazepam, triazolam, and nitrazepam.

i have the same opinion. hypnotic are more recreational than anxyolitics. triazolam and zolpidem are my fav ones, i tried 2 times flunitrazepam and OMG its just like 20mg diazepam + 80mg of codeine, too bad its more controled than all the other benzos

Correct, alprazolam is the most potent along with clonazepam and triazolam and it has a very short half-life, just like the other triazolobezodiazepine, triazolam. Midazolam has the shortest half-life of all the benzodiazepines. I prefer clonazepam and temazepam. The nitro-benzodiazepines are my favorite class of benzos. flunitrazepam is quite enjoyable too. These have long half-lives. Clonazepam lasts like 8 hours which is a preference for me. Taking high doses gives you a clean drunk feeling. Less side effects but without the euphoria.
 
temazapam - the sleepy benzo. but doesnt wanna make ya socialize
xanax - doesnt make me sleepy but makes me wanna socialize the most.
valium (my favorite) is in the middle. a littl drowsy but lowered social anxiety.
lorazepam. didnt feel a thing almost. so to me its like the weak benzo if u wanna take something for anti-anxiety but dont want anything to addioctive

Lorazepam is very subtle. I'd have to take at least 10mg to feel anything. It is an effective anxiolytic with little sedation.

Sorry, but the Ashton Manual is outdated. Even if not, I think that chart was meant for withdrawal and taper purposes, not equal anxiolytic or therapeutic doses. Studies, numerous of them, have proven without a shadow of a doubt that triazolam is the most potent benzodiazepine in common practice. That is why nations across the globe have lowered their max doses and minimum doses.

Actually, right now brotizolam is arguably even more potent than triazolam. As it has been shown to have activity at 100 micrograms.
