For those on Buspar, what positive effects do you notice? I have been on it for 8 days now, and honestly, I don't notice anything therapeutic. I am taking it for anxiety.

For the first 3 days, I had intense hyper feelings, like too much caffeine. Hard to sleep, pounding heart, hyperactivity, etc. Other side effects the first few days: extroversion (talking to strangers), enhanced sense of smell (very cool!), urge to drive recklessly. But all that went away. Now the only feeling I get is weak and tingly legs and sometimes I'm a little lightheaded when I take the first dose of the day.

When can I expect any positive effects to show up? Or is 8 days long enough to wait and I should give it up?
