"i first tried buspar for my generalized anxiety disorder, and after several weeks, gave up on it. i decided to work with my psychiatrist instead of my gp.  he agreed to let me try klonopin.  wow.  i only take 1 mg a day but i feel 90% recovered to my old self. i am more social again, working on my novel, doing well at work, handling stress well, having a lot more fun and joy. i&#039;ve been on it for 3.5 weeks and hopefully can stay on it permanently. i know one needs to be cautious with it."
