There aren't too many positive messages about Buspar on this board, but I've been on it for a little more than a month now, and WOW! My anxiety is so much more under control than I can remember it being in a long time. I haven't woken up at 4am having a panic attack in at least 3 weeks, and I feel like I'm able to cope with the things that are happening in my life on a day to day basis much more often. And my side effects are pretty much nonexistant. This is after a horrible experience with Paxil in which my anxiety seemed to double (I hadn't thought that would be possible!).
One thing, though, that I find a bit curious is that my sex drive has increased quite noticably, and sex with my husband is just incredible. I'm not complaining, of course! But I was wondering if anyone else has experienced a similar benefit from Buspar or any other med? Or am I just benefitting from being able to focus on things other than my anxiety?
