I started taking Buspar 15mg tablets about a month ago for my anxiety. I've been pretty hesitant to try medication, but my therapist suggested it and I wanted to give it a shot. I've heard mixed things about it, and while it's been a pretty positive experience so far, I'm curious to hear about other people's experiences. I've heard about some serious side effects like serotonin syndrome, and I'm not sure if I should be worried about that. I want to hear both the good and the bad from people who've taken this medication. How did Buspar work for you? What side effects did you experience?

I've been on Buspar for a few months now, and I feel like it's helped a bit, but I still get really anxious sometimes. I've heard that some people need a higher dose. Does anyone know if that's true? I'm just trying to figure out if I should give it more time or if I should talk to my doctor about switching to something else.

Y'all are making me worried. I just started taking Buspar and so far, I can't tell if it's even working. It hasn't been long, so I'm hoping it just takes a while. Does anyone know if it's better to take with food? I've been taking it on an empty stomach and I've been getting a bit nauseous.

I just started Buspar a few weeks ago, and I've been having some weird symptoms. I've had a really tight chest and trouble breathing. I've been feeling anxious about that, but I read that it can cause some serious issues if I don't stop taking the medication. Is it really that dangerous? I don't want to stop taking it and have my anxiety come back, but I'm scared to keep taking it and have it get worse.

I've been on Buspar for a few months now, and I honestly feel like it's made my anxiety worse. I've had some really bad panic attacks since I started taking it. I'm going to talk to my doctor about it, but I just wanted to share my experience. I hope it helps.

I had some really bad experiences with Buspar. I started feeling restless and had trouble controlling my body movements. It was like my body was constantly twitching. My doctor said it might be due to an interaction with another medication I was taking, but it was scary while it was happening.

I've been on Buspar for a few months now and I love it. I've had no side effects and haven't had a panic attack in ages. It's not a miracle drug and it didn't change my life overnight, but I'm just so much happier now.
