hey! Valium is an option..if you're in the US, docs tend to either not RX it (cuz its associated with "Mother's Little Helpers"-era practices) or they waaaaay under-prescribed it (20mgs day==1mgs Klonopin..when you do the math, you see patients get screwed). One that isn't RX'd much but I like is Librium..its kind of weak, but it lasts a while and is pleasant without being really intense. Ativan is good, too. Tranxene is an option, but it can be depressing..if it works, though, there's the T-Tab which is once-daily anxiety relief (how convenient).
Serax is also an option, although for some reason it seems to be used mostly for alcohol withdrawals/DTs.
There's always xanax but...that's a pretty tricky med.
