Last month I gave the Russian produced Afobazole a spin against anxiety & depression (dosage: 2x 10 mg daily; 1 tablet in the morning, 1 with dinner). On the first day I noticed a marked improvement: depression & anxiety seem to evaporate into thin air! Sleep much sounder, libido increased (but reaching O took much longer).
However, HUGE downside for me is increased dry mouth which became manifest on day 5 - a definite NO if you have Sjogren's syndrome.... darn it!! I liked this stuff because it's one of the few (if not the ONLY one) that doesn't give me weight gain...
Other side effect: increased perspiration & a more spirited attitude (little argumentative, sticking up for myself - a huge improvement for someone with an avoidant personality disorder), but I would have happily taken that in my stride if it wasn't for the dry mouth.
Just my 2 cents.

HI Maria,
Don't be too disappointed. I too tried afobazole and had a positive response at first, but its effectiveness faded rapidly. Taking more led to the same problem...so it wasn't worth the money for me.
Good luck in your search for an effective med.
