I’ve never tried Klonopin but you can learn on the internet that Klonopin is more potent than Ativan. Ativan is still pretty strong, but Xanax and Klonopin are more effective for anxiety.

Klonopin is longer acting and a bit more potent than Ativan.

But everyone reacts to these drugs differently

I stilll have some but I rarely take it these days. Ive taken 1 mg in the last month or so. But im not saying im done with them. They can be very helpful if taken responsibly.

I’m pretty sure Ativan is stronger. Well I’ve never tried Klonopin. Can’t remember if I tried Xanax.

Klonopin is pretty strong even at low doses. But, according to my own experience and some sources online - it can cause agitation in chronic schiz. Go figure.

Only had Ativan and it works well enough that I am scared of using it too often.

For me, Klonopin was more addictive and longer lasting than Ativan. Both worked for me.

Yeah physical dependency and withdrawal from benzos is extremely difficult. It can even be dangerous/life threatning to go cold turkey if you were taking high doses daily for a long time.
