"i have a bipolar disorder with anxiety and have been taking seroquel for the bipolar condition for more than 5 years.  i decided to try the buspar to help with the anxiety using 2 x 10mg per day and it works wonders.  at first the side effects made me cry for nothing but after 1 week everything got resolved and i see the benefits.  no real side effects for me since i use seroquel which is much stronger on the side effects.  what i see is that i can have dreams again which didn&#039;t happen for for the last 20 years and a lot less anxiety.  less closing of the hands reflects, calm, no social phobia, or performance anxiety.  it is working very well for me and now i need to do more with my life since i have the capacity.  thanks"
