"my dear and esteemed friends,

buspirone is in my opinion the best anxiety med i have had.  it is extremely safe, nonaddictive and has no withdrawal effects. i am 32 and never panic/anxiety attacks until  march of 2014 when i had kidney stone and was given hydromorphone for the pain and it messed up my nervous system giving me pretty bad anxiety/panic attacks and a little depression.  first i tried xanax 0.25 mg for awhile but it is short acting and then was given citalopram 10 mg but i stopped it because of concern for possible side effects of ssris.  finally my cousin who is a wise doctor gave me buspirone 7.5 mg and it was greaaattt!! took it for 3 months and total dissappearance of anxiety, panic and no depression, what a blessing it is."
