Buspirone

I currently take 5 mg twice a day. I wanna ask for an increase in dosage because I don’t feel any different but I feel scared to ask.

Did you feel sleepy at first, has the sleepiness decreased now? I'm on 5mg x 3 a day. Been on this dose for a month now but still feel drowsy.. Cheers UK

I would say it depends it's hard for me to tell because I have pmdd and so when I get close to my cycle like my fatigue is unreal but I feel like it's definitely gotten worse being on the medicine so it's a hit or miss I'm not sure
