Thanks everybody for your responses. I've been taken off the Buspar and I already feel better. I am somewhat convinced it was the Buspar that made me so intensely depressed, but I guess it's hard to know for certain. For a few days there I felt as bad as I did back in high school before I sought treatment... I've been depressed for most of my adult life, but this was different. I was on it for 3 or 4 weeks, so not as long as recommended for a new med trial, but I was having some very dark thoughts on it, I think it was the right decision to discontinue.
I'm glad to hear that some people are helped by Buspar. My pdoc says he's had a lot of success with it.
