"i started buspirone last week. prescribed to take one 7.5mg twice a day. i&#039;m not big on pill taking so with my doctors consent have only taken them when needed. 
the first day was... a unique one. i was extremely lightheaded and dizzy. as if the entire room was spilling but at the same time i had this unbelievable sense of relief from my anxiety. there are no words for the sense of relief and calm that i felt.
with each day i&#039;ve taken them the dizzy spell has gotten weaker and weaker. i do have a dull headache afterwards but it passes with time and tylenol. i&#039;m hoping that goes away as well. but if i have to choose between minor dizziness, and a slight headache over the chest pounding, agonizingly severe panic attack... i choose the buspirone"
