Anxiety
"Peaks and Valleys:
I felt like I had peaks and valley&#039;s of its effect (and side-effects).  I would feel its effects one hour after I took it, and they would be mostly gone six hours after the dose.  So even taking it four times a day did not provide stable relief.  

Effects:
It cut my anxiety down by about 40%.  Benzodiazepines cut it by about 90%.  

Side-Effects:
-I felt a roaring sensation in my head.  
-It also made me feel depressed sometimes.

Buspar side effects aren&#039;t too bad, but it doesn&#039;t provide that much relief either."
