Benzos Lorazepam? What benzo is it similar to?

[supersonic89]

Hi Bluelighters,

I remember taking Lorazepam two years ago but my tolerance for benzos was very low, so of course I ended up loving it. The effects that I got I could never get with any other benzodiazepine. I don't know if it was the dose (4mg) or it was just tolerance.

But what other benzo could it be compared to? as for its effects?

Yeah I've heard people saying Ativan gives them weird effects for a benzo. I mean for me it's got a similar duration and onset as Xanax while not packing quite the same punch.

Etizolam is very similar...it has the same potency as Lorazepam...feels very clean and doesn't cause delusions of sobriety like Alprazolam does due to its shorter onset and higher potency

I honestly have no idea why Etizolam isn't medically approved in North America and Europe with the exception of Italy.

That sounds wonderful. Next time I'll try to score some Lorazepam. And the sobriety thing is totally true, when I took it I felt really intoxicated, unlike alprazolam or clonazepam.
