Lorazepam and Alprazolam Comparison

SWIM loves the effect he gets from 3-4 mg of alprazolam. The effect he gets is similiar to a high dose of alcohol, he gets a very drunk feeling and a little amnesia. SWIM's prescription was recently switched from 2 mg alprazolam PO TID to 1 mg lorazepam PO TID. SWIM has tried taking up to 8 mg of lorazepam, and all he feels is a wave of drowsiness and some memory loss. Is it possible to get the effects the alprazolam gave from the lorazepam? Does SWIM need to increase the dosage, maybe switch the route of administration? Or does lorazepam just not offer the drunken stupor that alprazolam does?
