Is Valium 10 mg stronger than 5 mg of Klonopin?

Not really. They're in the same family of drugs (they're both benzodiazepines). But I have taken both, and they just don't feel the same at all. In my experience, Klonopin just makes you really sleepy. It doesn't make you happy and content. Just sleepy.

Valium, on the other hand, makes you feel great. Not euphoric, like a cocaine or heroin high, but just...it's sort of like being drunk, but in a less sloppy, loud, and wild way. It's like a quiet kind of drunk where you don't act loud and obnoxious and you don't completely lose your motor skills. You're just really, really relaxed and content. And then you go to sleep for like, 12 hours.
