In reply to Xanax vs Klonopin ... for Social Phobia, GAD, posted by JackT on May 26, 2003, at 12:54:56
Although all benzos are supposed to be the
same chemically, their half-life varies. I
find it odd that just this variable is responsible
for such different subjective effects, but
it does.Klonopin is hardly noticeable and much better
for long range anxiety or GAD. Xanax is
excellent for acute panic or sudden anxiety
from any number of causes. It is not the fastest
benzo, but one of the fastest. It's only
drawback real drawback is that it does not take
long before you reach tolerance. There is also
a bit of a hang-over effect the next morning
with it; don't know how to eliminate that --
