The only worsening of anything was as I began taking it and when I increased the Buspirone dosage. I had some increase in anxiety and some insomnia. After five or six days at each increase, the side effects would dissipate. I don’t seem to have any side effects right now other than a very very sligh...

I haven’t posted on the board in months. Back in July I decided to try Buspirone Despite not taking any medications for more than 12 years. I was getting not much benefit from everything else I tried. Between late July and late September and I gradually increased up to 60 mg per day. I did feel some...

Update on my Buspirone trial. Today is day 15. In the first 11 days I had a mild to moderate increase in anxiety symptoms -- felt like I drank too much coffee, sweating, had to divert my anxious thoughts a bit. It wasn't anything I couldn't handle. I also had a definite increase in intermittent head...

Back then I was on very high doses of Prozac and 60mg Buspirone. Since they are almost opposing forces in some sense – – when it comes to libido and...

Yes, while I was taking it with Prozac I had a strong libido and good function, too! I will NEVER touch an SSRI again but am considering using Buspar alone. I don’t really need it for anxiety it would be solely to treat the PSSD. My biggest concern is down regulating something else and having long-t...

I an a 55 y/o female who’s had PSSD for 12 years. I’ve had improvements over the years in overcoming most of the anhedonia and have had windows of ~70% sexual normalcy but they never lasted but a week or two and have recently disappeared for more than 5 mos. I haven’t taken any psych meds of any kin...
