Opinion on Lorazepam

I'm pretty familiar with the effects of xanex and klonopin, take them pretty often so I have somewhat of a tolerance. Girlfriend found a bottle of 1mg lorazepams. Never tried them before, was wondering how potent they are compared to alprazolam or clonazepam, and the slightly different effects.
We're just trying to relax and watch a movie with a little benzo buzz going on. 
Would like to get your guys's input

It's a bit weaker than Xanax which can be a good thing as I'm sure you're familiar with the Xanax black outs. I can't say how it compares to Klonipin as I've never done any. But I hope that helps.

Yeah I mean Xanax black outs really only occur from abuse though, could easily blackout on any benzo with the right amount, especially if alcohol is involved. I prefer klonopin because it's weaker by the mg and I'm more functional on them (memory stays a little more intact), plus they taste like mints

it lasts slightly longer than xanax, and about half as long as klonopin ime.
and its slightly less potent than xanax. id say .75mg loraz. = 1mg alphraz.

I used to eat those things like candy back years ago before I had any clue about this sort of stuff. They basically melt on your tongue. I'd eat 4 or 5, get all weird for an hour or two, then have a sweet nap. Kind of psychedelic in some sense. I remember trying to read things and it's like the letters would shift and change sizes. If I was tired it was definitely more pronounced. It's kind of interesting seeing the comparisons to the more popular benzos because lorazepam isn't something that gets mentioned often. Kind of makes me want to try a xanax at some point.

Benzos tend to give me massive amnesia no matter how much I take

Klonopin and Xanax are equal in potency per mg. It might feel like Xanax is more potent but it just kicks in and wears off faster. I've taken lorazepam and it felt like pretty much every other benzodiazepine. It's somewhere in the middle as far as onset of action and duration of effects. It seems like all benzos feel the same but they differ in how long they last, how fast they take effect, and what kind of side-effects they have (although, the side-effects are largely the same across the board).
