"was diagnosed recently with generalized anxiety disorder. it has manifested itself differently through the years...mostly irritable bowel syndrome. my symptoms now being terrible brain-fog and jitters. went through numerous blood tests, stress test, etc...and came to this &quot;anxiety&quot;  conclusion. i decided to try buspar, as my mom had been on it off and on and had good results. i was worried about weight gain mostly and this one was touted as not having this effect. 

after 2 weeks into the medicine, taking 15mg/day, i feel pretty good!  starting to feel back to my old self again. the first couple of days were a little weird, felt more anxious than ever but tried to keep busy and it passed. a little trouble sleeping at night but take melatonin to help for now."
