I’m on lexapro 20mg. I’ve been under some crazy stress and my anxiety is kicking in big time. My doctor put me on buspirone. I know nothing about it. 

Google says it can take 2 weeks to work. I started taking it yesterday and my mind feels quieter. I was able to fall asleep. I feel a bit blah though. Google also says no alcohol, but I’d like to have a beer with my friends. 

I’m also confused as to why this is a short term medication? How does that work?

How does it make you feel? What are your experiences?
