None this is a harm reduction site , assuming you are like most people you will be stubborn and get addicted to diazepam and your life is upset down. do not mess with this drug. If you really want to know google diazepam.

Its in the same family a little different, as I said earlier they are VERY addictive.

Benzos aren't worth getting into. Very addictive and it creeps up on you slowly.

ativan is more abused than valium 35% of OD hospital visits are because of ativan or maybe its 32% i saw it on wiki,anyways, i know they are addictive but i cant always get them so addictions not really a choice lol ppl dont sell them much around here. i like to try and dabble and try a little of everything at least once i just havent felt "high" on valium figured i wasnt taking enough or something

I think you should read over your source again because I doubt that Ativan (lorazepam) accounts for 30-something percent of OD hospital visits. Perhaps out of all of the OD's in which benzodiazepines are involved 30% of them are from Ativan, but that still seems to be a high percent due to the fact that it's probably the 4th most commonly prescribed benzo in the US, behind Xanax, Klonopin, and Valium.

This is from Tommboy;

Edit: OK, so I think I found the quote that you read, and you misinterpreted it.

"A large-scale, nationwide, U.S. government study of pharmaceutical-related emergency room (ER) visits by SAMHSA found sedative-hypnotics are the pharmaceuticals most frequently used outside of their prescribed medical purpose in the United States, with 35% of drug-related emergency room visits involving sedative-hypnotics (source)."

They are referring to all of the sedative-hypnotic benzos, not just Ativan. So Ativan makes up part of that 35%, but other benzos with sedative-hypnotic affects are in that percentage as well, and I think that other non-benzodiazepine sedative-hypnotic drugs may be accounted for in that percentage as well.
