Which should I get

[DeMiZe-420-]

People hate on ativan too much it's a great med for quickly squashing anxiety, not to mention sublingual speeds it up

i agree to much hate on valium and ativan. people automatically assume that since those 2 require a higher mg dosage to feel the effects that they are inferior to xanax and kpin

Apples and oranges... I don't like Ativan (lorazepam) yet I like Kpin (clonazepam) a lot.

very true. every single benzo is gonna be preferred over all the others by someone. just depends on the person.

as for the potency issue, someone said ativan was low and valium was high. ativan is very potent, only after xanax, halcion, and kpins. valium is a low-potency. but that really doesn't mean anything as to how it makes ou feel since mg strengths are different.

^ where do you get the idea that valium and ativan are "weak, and shit"?

in terms of potency yeah they are the weakest but have u ever done a HIGH dosage of Ativan? or a dosage equivalent to that of a xanax bar? actually, do you have any facts at all to back up that claim u just made

@DeMiZe-420-

Yes sir. I most certainly have taking Ativan 1 mg tablets. Over here, Australia, they are expensive as sheep-shit! Like $48 for a 50 packet of 1 mg Lorazepam tablets.
A. Given that Lorazepam has a short half life of 9–16 hours, which = two doses per day before the withdrawals start kicking in sir. Now, Lorazepam has relatively potent anxiolytic effects...when taken in doses exceeding 25 mg.....Lorazepam has strong sedative/hypnotic effects also at this dosage. Now given that this chap lives in the States and is charged overwhelming high prices for drugs, lorazepam isn't an ideal solution to his anxiety problems.

Given that

Lorazepam is pretty cheap here, too. Shit probably cheaper than that. That's more like the street price here. Most benzos are fairly cheap. It's stuff new enough that there isn't a generic out yet that are generally expensive.

BTW 25 mgs of lorazepam is an absolutely ridiculous dose
