Experiences with

BuSpar

I’m on my 4th dose (3rd day) of Buspar, I’m definitely seeing improvement but still pretty anxious, when will I stop feeling so anxious on this?! I’m impatient and tired..

Starting the SSRI and the Buspar really seemed to take a lot of energy out of me initially but that started the last week of February.

I’ve been on Buspar for two weeks now, it helps my panic attacks from spiraling but I still have pretty bad anxiety. I’m so desperate, I feel like this will last forever. I need success stories that this will go away one day with the right meds. I feel so alone.

Or what about Buspar?

Which meds have been most helpful for GAD / Panic for you?

Effexor and buspar just made me cry. Lexapro made me sick. Does anyone take gabapentin for generalized anxiety disorder? or trintillex?

On buspar now seems to work for the anxiety but now I feel irritable, have irregular heartbeat, and don't sleep very well. Any suggestions on natural anxiety remedies?

I take Lexapro and Buspar, I meditate, and I've recently stopped drinking my evening wine in hopes that somehow these changes will stop the madness within me. I could go on and on, but doing so, like everything else, is escalating the anxiety! Is there a way out of this?

I am having panic attacks every evening and take 45mg of Remeron, 15 mg Buspar x3 plus 2 1/2 tablets of 25/100 Sinemet 6 times a day. My neuro is reducing the Sinemet and won’t do anything about the anxiety. I have a new Psychiatrist that won’t change anything either.

Next month he’s going to introduce Buspar into the equation to help with my anxiety symptoms that so far nothing has helped (hydroxyzine, propananol,lexapro). Is anyone else on this combo of meds? Does it help you? What does Buspar feel like?

Anyone else tried buspar?

She put me on Buspar last week and we've been slowly increasing the dosage and she wants to see if it will make a difference. She is also going to find a psychiatrist for a second opinion (she thinks I'm on the wrong meds based on my GeneSight map).

Sertraline- Zoloft Venlafaxine- Effexor Citalopram- Celexa Mirtazapine-Remeron Fluoxetine- Prozac Duloxetine- Cymbalta Seroquel- Quetiapine Lamictal- Lamotrigine Lexapro- Escitalopram Wellbutrin- Bupropion Lorazepam- Ativan Klonopin- Clonazepam Abilify - aripiprazole Tegrotal - carabamezipine Buspar

We tried Buspar, made me really ill. Totally changed zoloft to Pristiq, no change in anxiety still high. I see a therapist, but that seems to just make me dwell on anxiety all day every day. Therapist wants me off all meds, GP wants me to switch to trintellix. I am so confused.

I got hit with anxiety and had to start Buspar four weeks after starting the suboxone. I was able to reduce Neupro from 1.5 mgs to 1, but no less than that. Two weeks ago the doctors told me to stop Suboxone, and I could try a different opioid.

It seems like I am looking at Prozac or Buspar or the best anxiety med to help get my life back. I realize all meds have side effects so i need some guidance.

Now on Buspar, helps some with anxiety, been 2 weeks, hope it helps with sleeping. It has been a little better but I still wake several times a night with difficulty getting back to sleep and feel the need to get up early. I fall asleep ok it's the waking, at 71 it takes its toll.

I know I read that buspar doesn’t cause withdrawal symptoms when stopped but I’m seeing very bad withdrawal symptoms as my mom tapers off. Had to stop because it made her anxiety a lot worse . Anyone experienced withdrawal for this drug?

I’m nauseous, shaking, anxious, had to re-add buspar to my antidepressant because it’s hard to function. Has anyone else experienced this after a stomach bug? Feels like it came out of nowhere
