I don't have a whole lot of experience with benzos. Xanax is the only one I've tried, and I liked it. I took it for about 6 weeks during an intense anxiety time of my life, up to 2mg a day, but now I hardly ever need it, though I must admit I never go anywhere without an emergency stash.
I found xanax to have some mild antidepressant properties, and it stopped anxiety and panic dead in their tracks, and made me very comfortable in situations that were normally extremely uncomfortable for me. Back in the old days I think it was one of the first antidepressants. But ya know, xanax will be nice for some people and lousy for others. You know how that goes.
But if clonazepam is depressing you, yeah, I wouldn't hesitate to switch. Xanax is a good choice I think. You could always fall back to one of the others you are familiar with if you didn't like xanax after trying it.
