"my anxiety was extremely bad and i had tried lexapro but the side effects for me were horrible; so my doctor started new on buspar. i&#039;ve been on it now going on two weeks and i can say i do feel a slight difference. my anxiety is still there but not as bad... i&#039;m still having attacks off and on but i&#039;m going to stick with this and give it some more time. the only side effect i have is the dizziness but i&#039;ve learned if i eat even just a piece of toast that it helps with that. other than that no side effects. i say if your suffering give this a try and stick with it."
