Depending on the quality of the V's I've been taking I've been pretty happy. I'd like to look into alternatives with the same effect - I've tried Xanax which does the trick as well, but not quite the same. Any suggestions of something different from valium/diazepam?

Closest match is probably Clonazepam, IMO. Most different will be your shorter half-life benzos (Triazolam), for example. As a rule of thumb, the "pam"s are longer lasting and the " lams" are shorter.
