Yesterday I saw the tele psychiatrist. He at least wants to try a couple of things. I need to increase my busbar to 10 mgs twice a day. And add 100-200 mgs of gabapentin; Last January I was on 900 mgs and the side effects were so bad I flushed it. I am afraid to try it. Ive tried so much stuff. Do you think since it is a very small dose, it will be ok to try it?

I am taking 10 mgs of buspar twice a day. So far it hasn't done much.I feel the same way. Even if I find something that I feel is helping a little, I am afraid of changing it because I am afraid I will get worse. The gabepintin seems to be helping with my anxiety, but like I said before I am alittle scared of it too, because when I took it before it completely changed my personality. So, I will go slow on it. The doctor thought i was just taking too much before

I don’t know but I can tell you anytime they want to give me a new med, I want to run and hide. I hate switching. My doctor just prescribed busbar for me for anxiety. What do you take it for? Does it give you side effects?
