Thank you for your videos on Buspar. I have been on 5 mg twice a day and had 2 panic attacks out of nowhere (well when driving - which definitely causes anxiety for me) my Doctor wants me to start increasing it by taking 10 mg in the morning and 5 mg at night for one week and then increasing to 10 mg twice a day. I am nervous about the side effects but I feel like I will do anything to get my anxiety under control. I really appreciate any advice that you have and I really appreciate your honesty with your videos. It really gives me hope so thank you.

I know this sounds weird... but the memory loss, I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing (though memory loss could be problematic in certain circumstances). I think it might be that with your increased level of engagement with life as a result of a decrease in anxiety/depression, you might not mentally record as much the way we tend to when we're in survival mode. Safety feels like not having to remember things if you don't want to. Unfortunately, it does make life difficult in this world -- but maybe this will help you look at the problem as not something that is wrong, but rather something inherently wrong with the demands placed on us by society (to remember so many things). ADHD folx are hunter/gatherers. Wishing you all the best, and thanks for your review. This is a medication that the older woman I care for is starting tomorrow, and I want to see how it affects people of various ages and backgrounds.

Check her 1 week update. I do have issues sleeping still due to intense anxiety and have been on it for almost a month. I had one really creepy dream within the past 2 weeks also. And also another very vivid dream the night after. I have to go to bed within 30 minutes of taking it or it wares off and becomes not as easy to sleep. Sometimes if I go to bed in good timing I'll wake up within four hours and my anxiety will spike again. But everyone is different. I've been on it before and it helped it just takes me a long time to adjust to things. I think about 2 months is where I started feeling a lot better and 4 months is where I was at least a little more confident about how well it was working.

Hi, I am in the middle of my third week. This has been a very challenging experience. At times, I feel like I am going crazy. Half of week 2 was ok, then the rest of it was filled with panic attacks now. I am barely eating, lost 10 pounds, shaking all the time, getting emotional or crying for no reason, etc. Alot of what you said in your videos resonates with me in some way. I guess I am seeking words of encouragement or advice. I have alot of nausea too and aggravation of my gerd, which doesnt help with my appetite. Everything is just beyond difficult and idk if I can keep going with this, especially when it takes the body 2-4 weeks to adjust to this and a month or two on average to feel the affects.

If I remember correctly that’s actually what I started on too! Some people are sensitive and or a bad reaction to drugs that affect serotonin, so it’s safer to start low and go up most of the time
