I like theanine. It seems to provide mild focus and energy at the same time. It's an amino acid found primarily in tea, which is thought to counteract the potential anxiety that the caffeine in tea can cause. In Japan, apparently it's added to all sorts of products (soft drinks, gum, etc.). There was a study in the news recently which suggested that L-theanine may even be an immune system booster.

It's definitely worth a try, although I found it pretty subtle. For me, Klonopin definitely is the top anti-anxiety med.

BTW, Picamilon also had subtle positive effects for me, somewhat similar to those of L-theanine. However, I've never taken Buspar and don't know anything about the potential interactions.
