Hello,

I've been dealing with anxiety for years, but it was always not that bad until I lost my dad 3 years ago, and the anxiety got way worse (overthinking, irrational fears, chest pains...)

Last year, I started taking Dogmatil, and it worked well most of the time, however, it completely messed up my period to the point where I almost have no period at all.

So, a couple of days ago, I switched to BuSpar (10mg a day), I've been taking it for 3 days and I got a lot of side effects: dizziness, nausea, headaches, tension in legs, diarrhea, and last night, I had trouble sleeping and I woke up with my heart racing.

Should I keep taking BuSpar since I read the side effects mostly go away? Or are those side effects too severe that I have to stop it?

Also, can I take Melatonin (3mg) at night to help with the sleep problem?

Thank you!
