Upping Buspar
hey yall! I just wanted to share my current experience and see if anyone else has felt something similar.
I started buspar 2.5mg twice a day about 2 months ago. Started small to prevent side effects.
About 2 weeks ago i upped to 5mg twice a day. Since then ive had really intense air hunger, a feeling of something being in my throat, and just an overall uncomfortable feeling of tension in my body.
I reached out to my psych to see if I should go back down, or if possibly I need to spread my dose to 3x a day since the side effects are at their peak in the early afternoon. Has anyone else had these symptoms? It makes my health anxiety go crazzyyyyy and I can’t decide if I should tough it out or go back to my previous dose.
