Hi,
I suffer from mainly from GAD,obssesions, atypical depression and adult ADD. I used zoloft,lithium,prozac,effexor,xanax,valium and other stuff before.
Recently I was using reboxetine(2*4mg bid) for a long while but when my GAD,social phobia worsened I added some buspirone(3*5mg tid).And magically my anticipatory anxiety and ruminations that I suffered for years had vanished!!! I think buspirone is a great medication for whom it works.
But my problem is now because of buspirone`s low serotonin levels my obsessions are worse. But whenever I use SSRI on their own after a while they decrease my motivation and concentration. With what can I augment buspirone now?
Thanks for your comments.
(I am thinking may be sertraline-zoloft may be good with buspirone but what wondered about sexual side effects.Anyone tried this combo???)

I take zoloft (50mg) and buspar (30mg) plus 20mg ritalin per day. Zoloft alone made me tired and "uninspired". With the buspar I'm "inspired" and feeling great. Fantastic combination for me.
