"i&#039;m 31yr old fem, and have been taking buspar for anxiety/panic for three months, and have decided to discontinue. it took roughly 3 weeks before i noticed a difference. i am slower to irritate, less agitated, and can better manage the constant nagging sensation of anxiety. i&#039;ve been sleeping better, but really require a full night&#039;s sleep or else i&#039;m drowsy all day. and i&#039;ve been more at ease with new people. these changes have been certainly been positive but minimal. lately, every day, 2x&#039;s a day about 20 mins after my dose (10mg @ 2/day) i would get a ringing headache, body shocks, and dizziness or nausea. i thought this would go away, but it hasn&#039;t, and it is getting to the point that my anxiety level is increasing."
