Klonopin is another long acting benzo that is said to have a smoother onset of action than Valium. Also because of Valium's history of abuse, some docs prefer Klonopin. From my personal experience, a Dr once put me on Xanax (a short half-life benzo) but I became rapidly addicted and the short half-life was a roller coaster ride. To come off I was put on Elavil 25mg which is relaxing and quite sedating during the night - a great thing as I was waking up with panic attacks and nightmares.
