> I think (as does my psychiatrist) that there is more difference between xanax and klonopin than just pharmacokinetics. Xanax has been shown (in not terrifically convincing studies) to have antidepressant effects. As far as I know klonopin if anything can produce a slightly depressed mood in some people. For me taking just klonopin for my anxious depressions has not been as effective as taking xanax alone or with klonopin. FWIW.

I totally agree Britt, in general those hold true.
Klonopin does induce mild depression for me, and
Xanax does not, in fact in low dose it is mood lifting for me.For SP, Klonopin is extremely effective, Xanax only a bit (statistically).
But for panic and other stuff Xanax often has advantages except for half life.
