"have been on buspar for a few months, and i like it a lot! it has made severe and paralyzing anxiety lift to a manageable level, even while taking a low dosage of 10 mg daily. my dr. told me that i can increase the dosage, since in taking so little it doesn&#039;t rid me of anxiety completely (no med can). but i noticed that when i upped my dose my appetite came back more than i would have liked. essentially, i think it works to strengthen my ssri (sertraline); and i did have dizziness when i first started and felt pretty bad, but that&#039;s common for anti-anxieties and usually goes away as your body gets used to it. i do still find however after i take my morning dose (usually) with coffee i do feel a bit woozy but it usually wears off quickly."
