i've only taken plain xanax. it kicks in fast, which is great if you need it right away. i liked that for panic. that was usually all that i needed. take one; it kicked in; didn't need another one.

i felt more normal (whatever that means) and in control with xanax. with klonopin, i am not as edgy. somebody made the point that xanax treats panic, while klonopin prevents it altogether (my bad paraphrase.) but that's kind of how i feel about the klonopin. i find klonopin helps with calming my thinking. but if i end up having panic, it's a pain to wait 10 mins for it to kick in when xanax would have kicked in in 1 min.

i've tried ativan several years ago. it made me feel like crud. lots of residual i don't know what, but i didn't like it at all. depends on your body chemistry i guess.
