> valium, as you know, is more sedating than many of the more popular benzos (ativan, klonopin, xanax) and also less potent. Sounds to me like you're getting sedation without appropriate anxiety relief. Just a guess.

> Could you try Ativan? Its more sedating than Klonopin, but its supposedly less addictive than Xanax and its quite popular for psychiatric issues (in mental hospitals they're always injecting people with lorazepam). I don't think it causes euphoria like xanax or depression like Klonopin, although you will need to take it (I think) 3x daily for daylong sedation. It makes a reasonably effective night-time sedative;even if it doesn't put you to sleep, it should reduce anxiety and agitation to make it easier to nod off.
Nice post.- Scott
Some see things as they are and ask why.
I dream of things that never were and ask why not.
