Just to add some further information....

A lot of it can also depend on the individual involved, one may not work for them, while another might, so sometimes it's really just a matter of trial and error to see which medication works for you.

I'm going to include the link for information on them, in case anyone else is looking for more details and wants to know which ones are available.

You can learn more Benzodiazepine details here.

Are there any questions or comments?

they are roughly equivalent, but Xanax hits the nervous system faster, and gets out of you system faster. Both good for panic, crappy for sleep, wouldn't use either for persistant symptoms of anxiety.
