I’m currently on buspar, and have been for a few years. It works for me but only so much. I still experience a lot of anxiety and when the anxiety gets bad it starts to turn into depression. I’ve heard buspar is sometimes paired with an antidepressant. I’ve been a little worried about getting on antidepressants because I don’t typically deal with straight up depression, but my anxiety has been on the rise and I really don’t want to take Xanax every day.
