"i have debilitating anxiety which keeps me from leaving the house many days. before, i would cry almost daily, even when life was going better. the little things tore me apart. with the buspar... it&#039;s like i&#039;m getting &quot;moments&quot; back. i still get anxious sometimes, but i have occasional periods of feeling. ... normal. clear. simple, natural interactions with family and friends are possible again. as time goes on, i&#039;m experiencing more and more &quot;moments&quot; of real life again, or, life before anxiety. multiple friends have told me i seem much happier. though i don&#039;t particularly think of myself as suddenly &quot; all sunshine and roses&quot;,  i feel like i have my life back. i&#039;m actually living again."
