Hey everyone, I wanted to give an update on how the Buspar has been going for me. I've been on it for a few weeks now and have slowly increased the dose to what my pdoc recommended. I'm currently taking two 5mg and one 10mg dose per day.
I've been experiencing intermittent side effects with it the whole way through, mostly feeling lightheaded and tired.
Overall I think it has helped some with my anxiety, though I wouldn't label it as a magic bullet solution. It seems to be softening the outer edge of the anxiety so I don't trip over into complete meltdown mode as often given the same level of anxiousness. It has also helped calm down the ever-present feeling of anxiety resulting in that 'rock in your gut' feeling. It's pleasant to have that less often.
Hope everyone is well.
