Given my issues, I want to give this question another go.
Obviously, there is a difference between 'duration of action' and 'half life'. While diazepam has a very long half life, I would need to dose 3 x a day to 'cover' one dose of clonazepam. For me, clonazepam lasts a full day.
In my experience it seems I'm a 'duration of action' type of guy, once that is over it is not doing much.
Benzodiazepines other than clonazepam, that have a long duration of action (>11 hours). Once, I followed a foolish suggestion of my doc to switch to lorazepam. Taking it twice a day worked well, till I developed tolerance to and dependence on the drug, making it fairly short/medium acting (peaks and vallleys).
I don't want to take a research chemical, maybe I can import something (legally) if it can work.
I have this list from wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_benzodiazepines which unfortunately doesn't say anything about the 'duration of action'.
Obviously such a drug would need to meet certain criteria, for example a strong hypnotic would not be suitable.
Anyone ?
