They increase the sensitivity of GABA receptors making them more efficient. Benzodiazepines do not act the same as GABA, nor do they activate GABA receptors.

However, I can't find that information here.

I added this sentence after the one with the antiepressant mention to clarify: "So does that mean sedatives (like Valium) <em>decrease</em> neurogenesis?

Does valium work differently to most antidepressant/anti-anxiety drugs?
