Ok so I  started taking buspirone on the night of the 18th. Started with 2.5 mg twice a day. Noticed I would wake up still with anxiety and high heart rate so slowly took a lil more. Since yesterday I started taking a lil more of the pill and this morning I did feel I woke up with less anxiety. Going to take the full dose of 5mg tonight. I'm sensitive to meds and scared of side effects which is why I started small. As far as side effects I don't really feel too hungry in the morning, have this slight pressure in my head and if I sit too fast or just drop to the couch or get up to fast it kinda feels like tht feeling in a elevator when it stops fast and u feel everything kinda sink but not too bad.  1st few days my stomach was also hurting and my dreams have been a lil wierd but I have always had wierd dreams just now kinda remember them more lol...sometimes its a lil hard to fall asleep. So as far as side effects thys all I have felt. Not too bad just minimal.  As far as my anxiety goes it does make a huge difference then when I wasn't on it. I'm am definitely less anxious but there are times when my anxiety breaks through but its like I can deal with it better and not have an attack. Still have a fear im gonna have a panic attack if I go out and do things before tht would cause them but thts expected. Fears don't just go away with the med. We still have to put some work in. Justbhad a tele aplr wit my dr and she said everything is going fine and taking the 5mg twice a day I should notice more of a change within the next week and tht it will help with the panic attacks cuz it will diminish my anxiety. So overall good experience so far....
