    I have had anxiety and panic attacks and the doctor put me on Buspar. I wondered if anyone has had any experience of it?Side effects, works,doesn't work. Anxiety in itself seems difficult enough, and often wonder if my anxiety has been heightened by taking this. I am on it 6months. Would be interested in hearing anyone elses experience of it?

    I never took that but i tried a few things like xanx , ceprinol and some other stuff that just made me worse , one made me suicidal (o_O) well more suicidal then i heard about it on the news making people kill themselfs :eek: anyway someone i know met a girl somewhere and panic attacks came up and she mentioned how lexapro pritty much stopped them so i asked my gp about them and she me on them a few years ago and they did stop them for me, Not totally stoped them now i get them the odd time but there less intense and easyer to deal with.

    I am also on Lexapro for a long time. I was given Buspar after panic attacks started to occur again. I have found that I am having low moods, and if I'm honest..there have been suicidal thoughts.I will be coming off it soon, which i am happy about.
