Most antidepressants are known to cause some initial side effects, however they go away after a few days/weeks, after wich youll start to notice the benefits.
buspar is a tranquilliser, nothing else like it
has also been promoted as making an antidepressant work better, one of those suspicious 'off label' uses
was promoted as the non addictive alternative to valium, which it wasnt
I will still take 5mg a day, i have clinicals soon and i need some thing that works fast...The doc that prescribed me buspar is a resident doc and she didn't want to give me anyting temporaly or to use occasionaly..i think i should go see a real doc for some thing temp that will help until buspar kicks in.
busbar was useless for me aswell, with and without an antidepressant. Hope it helps for you though. I'd agree to see a doc with experience in mental health though, there is a HUGE difference between a general practitioner and someone who specializes in mental health.
Ya know, I guess it comes down to how successful you feel the outcome will be in working with her. Medication is a test and feedback scenario and if you feel this current doc will relate and understand with the flexibility it takes to find a working substance then the rest is gravy so to speak. Keep us updated!

today is the 9th day on buspar, onley 5 mg a day..its weird today my eyes dialated, feel a little out of it, just causing more anxiety...should i stop taking it, and if i do whin in how many days should this go away?? I Dont feel like my self today im more akward and more fearful towards my surroundings,/....does any one know if this means that the med is already starding to work, but will these side effects subside, or will they come back every time?? I don't like how i feel today, feel a lil worse:|
ive been on 5 days of buspar at 15mg and have been feeling light headed and dizzy, which leads to an increase of anxiety, and sometimes I notice anger as well. Ehh..I can't stand feeling this way. Might give it a full week, or another before deciding to dump it if these side effects don't subside :blank
my borther noticed a diffrence in me today he said i looked diffrent, and that if a med takes away from who i am than maybe i should rethink taking it, i guess i look like i feel...zombie like. not good..
