Insomnia, but do feel less anxious and feel more carefree. I also take Sertraline and propranolol and have started taking a small dose of Amitriptaline to combat the insomnia. | F | 32 | 1 months 30 | 11/10/2013 | 1 | Generalized Anxiety Disorder | I was given Buspar to add to Lexapro -150 mg. I experienced accelerated heart rate, sweating, nausea, diarrhea. The worst of it was seeing strange images, tryi mg to touch what I thought was there, and hearing repetitive voices/singing. I was so shaken I discontinued it. Has anyone else experienced this? How long will that dose be affective. I know I'm Not Crazy....... | F | 66 | 1 days 30 | 11/9/2013 | 1 | Anxiety | Nervousness, bouncing feet and shakey hands, sweaty and jumpy. I didn't sleep but 2 hours a night, the Four days I was taking it.. I also had shortness of breath and felt like I always had to do something but not sure what! Like I had tons if energy but more nervous energy.. Just really bad anxiety and insomnia! I hated it. I'd take it 1st thing in the morning and I'd still be on edge 1,2,3am like I just woke up.. I was like that all day.. Even had confusion with words, couldn't keep my words right and hold a proper conversation.. | F | 30 | 4 days 5ng | 11/5/2013 | 5 | PMS, Tension, Stress, OCD | Some spaciness, "dumbed down" feeling, quietness (didn't have much to say, introverted), sedation. | I have NEVER taken a drug before! I am one of those that hates taking an aspirin when I have a headache. However, after too many years of "self-medicating" my GAD with emotional stress eating and having the extra lbs to prove it, I did lots of research and settled on Buspar w/ my doc. The first script was for 10 mg once a day which I split into AM/PM doses- that was by teva. My first week I had insomnia and felt wired/high. Then it settled down and I was beginning to relax but still felt "wired". It all changed when after 1 month I had a follow up w/ Doc and asked for 5mg doses, so I wouldn't have to cut them. That manuf was different. What a difference! This 5 mg dose is exactly what I wanted! I am relaxed all the time. No PMS. I fell sedated, but functional- which I like. I do feel a bit "dumb", spacey, and I can find myself staring at something in a dream state at times. Also, I have lost all ability to orgasm, however, I still desire and enjoy sex. I am too relaxed and happy to care about not being to orgasm. I am completely passive about almost all things- I used to be a type A about all things. I take 5mg 2 x/day. I gave my hubby a few pills, if I seem irritable at all (maybe one day at that time of the month), he encourages me to take an extra dose that day to "take the edge off". Those 3 dose days (very few) I am a bit more sedated and quiet than I'd like, but it is for the best. I find I get a boost in effect for a week or so a | F | 37 | 3 months 5mg 2X day | 11/3/2013 | 5 | PTSD | Short term memory loss, increased appetite-VERY high anxiety, heart palpitations, and nausea until my body adjusted. | I highly recommend sticking with this drug until the initial high anxiety wears off. It's changed my life. I'm much more calm, my nightmares have decreased dramatically, and I can go out in public alone. I ignore the increased appetite, because I know it's not real hunger, so I haven't gained any weight. And the short term memory loss is a small price to pay. I would recommend this to anyone suffering from PTSD-at least give it a try. | F | 45 | 8 months 5MG 2X day | 10/23/2013 | 4 | Generalized Anxiety Disorder | Sleepiness when combined with Amitriptyline which I don't mind as I have a hard time sleeping. No other side effects. | M | 30 | 1 weeks 15 | 10/17/2013 | 5 | anxiety anger irrability | Stomach upset | F | 39 | 10 days 5mg 2times | 9/9/2013 | 2 | axiety ocd symptomatic disorder | More heart pounding non stop worry alot more expecially at night think im dying nausea and lightheadedness | F | 17 | 5 weeks 10 | 9/3/2013 | 3 | GAD | Ringing in ears and upset stomach for a few days. | M | 55 | 5 weeks 20 mg | 9/1/2013 | 4 | xanax addiction | None I have noticed yet | M | 15 | 3 weeks 20mg | 8/27/2013 | 3 | Anxiety | How long do the side effects last, very dizzy and bad headache, does seem to be calming me down though | F | 29 | 6 days 15 | 8/26/2013 | 2 | anxiety | It made my anxiety worse and my doctor gave it to me with nothing to take the edge off I have been having tingly skin and I have bad insomnia I have had an anxiety attack every day since I started taking it I need to find a doc that is going to be patient with me a is going to find the right meds for me because changing from xanax to buspar is a big step. | F | 36 | 7 days 10mg | 8/17/2013 | 4 | Acute onset anxiety | Approximately 20 mins after I take a dose, I experience moderate lightheadedness and a foggy mental state. It lasts for 20-30 minutes. I can tell that it has "kicked in" because I also experience a tingly-like sensation in my extremities. I have also experienced a marked decrease in appetite. That seems to be subsiding somewhat | F | 40 | 1 months 15 mg | 8/9/2013 | 1 | panic disorder, anxiety | Horrible tremors.. extremely irritable. Hostile. Actually increased my anxiety.
