have you considered taking valium instead of klonopin, it has a longer half life and i wouldent say the two are totally indifferent i ordered some of that website instead of xanax.

Have you tried it yet? I'm not sure about taking something with a longer halflife as it would be in mysystem for longer and if ever I had to take it for 2 or 3 days in a row it may build up in my system.

i think then it would be best to cycle drugs. I for instance use sa drugs as needed, this includes alcohol, valium, gbl, and phenibut. You could also throw uppers into the mix like ephedrine, caffeine tablets etc. none of these are harsh street drugs though you have to be careful witht he dosing of gbl. I dont think there are many drugs that you could take everyday without tolerance being built up. that is the problem with most benzos.

I have been prescribed both Klonopin,Valium and Xanax over the years.Without question Xanax is the stronger of the 2 and works better then Klonopin in my opinion.I think from personal expierence Doctors are aware that Xanax is the most addictive in this class of medicines.There has to be some trust between the Doctor and yourself because alot of people abuse these mild tranquilizer's especially Xanax.I would only get these meds from a Doctors prescription though.I mainly rely on xanax now for certain social situations.It is not good to take xanax or any Benzo every day because tolerance builds up and eventually it will not work as well if taken every single day.I just started taking Neurontin 300 mg's just today, as I have read it can really help with social phobia.The only other Benzo i have been prescribed was valium(long acting) and it was similar to Xanax(short acting) just not as strong but it lasted alot longer and it was very effective.I have yet to take Xanax with Neurontin as this could tell how effective in combination it treats my social phobia or shyness. Cool

Thanks for the great info ShynCursed. I find xanax to be brilliant but want to try something else. I have a source for valium so I might try that and see if I prefer it over xanax. Are you having any luck with Neurontin? I did some research on it and it sounded like it wasn't that much use for sa? but that was just the stuff I read. How's it working out for you?

well I have only been taking the Neuronyin for about 7 days now so its hard to tell if its working or not.When My Doctor prescribed me years ago klonopin and I eventually was taking 6 mg's in combination with 40 mg's of valium.I did not take the whole dose though unless i really needed to.I thought 6 mg's of klonopin was stronger then 40 mg's of valium.Tolerance built up to quickly then. So now that I am giving xanax a chance,I won't make the mistake of taking it everyday and building up a tolerance to it,so when I need it,it should work very well,hopefully.I don't know why that klonopin or rivotril is more effective for social anxiety then the other Benzo's.I think it has to do with its reputation of being the least addictive benzo which makes Doctors more at ease to prescribe it but who knows Question
