Alcohol activates the reward pathways in the brain much more then benzodiazapines. In this way, the relaxing effect may feel more positive.
I have been using medical pot and notice something similar. I.e. its helping me much more than traditional anxiety / depression meds. Many anxiety / depression meds just make me feel dysphoric.
