Hi I’ve been on buspirone for nearly 4 weeks, I feel my anxiety has heightened and my head is in a constant fog, I don’t want to stop incase I’ve not given these long enough to work but I feel like I need reassurance that it will get better I’m at my wits end😢
Buspirone is extremely hit or miss. My doctors gave it about 2 weeks to show results, but I couldn't even make it that far as it increased my anxiety to an insane degree whenever I took it. If you really feel it isn't working or worth it I would recommend talking to a doctor about it or simply waning off it in your own as I did. Buspirone didn't work for me, but I did find that Lexapro works like a charm, so it's very likely you'll find another medicine that will work better-just keep pushing forward. You'll be all right.
Thats interesting as ive tried everything for anxiety and now about to try buspirone but not if younthink its made you worse. All ssris did that to me as well. What on earth do people recommend for anxiety please?
What mg are you on thanks, how long did it take to start working for you, I am 5mg week 5 on Monday, still full of anxiety
