Buspar!! Someone PLEASE talk to me!

[tropicalsoul]

I have read about Buspar on several websites and they all list the typical side effects.  Dizzy, lightheaded, headache & insomnia.  Has anyone here ever taken Buspar and if so would you please tell me the good, bad & ugly of this med.  I realize we are all different and react differently but it makes it a little easier to hear it from a real person.  ,

The reason I am prescribed Buspar is I reacted strangely to several other SSRI's like Lexapro, Prozac, Cymbalta, amatryptaline & Paxil.  I was only able to take each of them for 7 days as the side effects were so bad I was unable to carry on a normal life.  Whatever that is supposed to be.  He seems to think I may have fewer/less side effects with Buspar.  PLEASE....any thought would be highly appreciated.

My advice, would be to not worry or think too much on other peoples reactions to Buspar. We are all different, and react different to different medications. WOW, how many times can you use different in a sentence? ha.

Just trust your Dr and give it a try. From what I have heard though, to give you peace of mind, a friend of mine swears by it, and it has changed her life. =)

So give it a whirl, and hopefully it will change your life in a wonderful way. =) Then you can get on with life and enjoy it once again.

You'll get through this. =)

I personally have taken meds like lexapro and buspar.  Buspar just work for my anxiety and I rally don't remember having any adverse effects.
