Klonopin is calming me down and giving me some sleep, even in the miniscule dose of .125mg during the day and .25mg at night. But it makes me kind of depressed, more than I already am. I like xanax better for mood, but the peaks and valleys are viscious, plus it just feels way more addicting than klonopin. The extended release version is so expensive.
What is another choice for a long lasting benzo for anxiety and sleep that will not be depressing like klono? I see mention here from Phillipa and sometimes others about valium, and once in a while about ativan. I have a friend on lorazepam and I asked him how it made him feel, and he said "good". So I don't know. Any advice?
