Has anyone taken Buspirone for anxiety?

Question

Did it work? Any negative side effects? My doctor prescribed it for general anxiety disorder but I’ve been too scared to take it. 😔

I took it and it didn’t do anything at all for me. I ended up switching to klonopin

I hated it. Made my anxiety worse

Answer

My husband takes it, and so does my dad.. it has worked wonders for them! .. hubby says it makes him “feel good” for like 15-20 minutes before mellowing out, but it has been a life saver for him! .. everyone is different, but I hope it works the same for you.

I took it and it was life changing!! I took it for around 6 months (it does take about a month for it to start working) & even coming off of it I feel its helped my anxiety so much!!

Answer

made anxiety worse!

Answer

It did nothing to help me at all, I ended up trying it for about a year before switching to Paxil.

Answer

Everyone is different. When I took it, it made me crazy! I was on it for 2 weeks, just when it really gets into your system. I ended up in a ball crying and hysterical. As with any anxiety or antidepressant medication, just listen to your body and if you start to feel worse talk to your doc immediately. If you don't try it though, you'll never know.
