"i have been taking buspar for 2 weeks now. my doctor started me on 10mg - 3 times a day right off the bat. it has taken away the constant &quot;buzzing&quot; in my head. the general feeling of dread, helplessness, anxiety and constant worry along with irratibility and agitation that i haven&#039;t been able to shake since being weaned off klonopin. (i was on klonopin for 5 years). it has given me no side affects. i still do not sleep well, but today, i cannot imagine not taking this medicine because i feel 10x better than i did 2 weeks ago!"
