Buspar boost leaves me exhausted, not calm

Post Reply New Topic

I'm on 300mg of Wellbutrin XL to control anxiety and then have 5mg of Buspar to use as a booster in times of high stress.

My therapy sessions are only 45 minutes, not a full 60 minutes. I don't know why it's that way but she's better than Manny Misdiagnosis so I deal with it. Except today, she unearthed a well of anger and resentment that I've been carefully suppressing. This is the point of therapy so it was her job to do it and I understand that much. Unfortunately, she didn't have the time to properly handle it so she gave me some general fix-all advice meant to cap it and I was off on my way with a date and time of my next appointment. I haven't needed the buspar until today so I tried it. It's taken my anger down a notch but now I'm sleepy and have a headache. Just exhausted now. So now I'm discontent with no motivation. Is that what it's supposed to do?!

Anyone have experience with Buspar?

Buspar stopped my brains' thinking process entirely after I took it the first time. I was in the shower and started to laugh at myself randomly because I wasn't able to think. Then after I was on it a few days I had a major crying spell because I felt so horrible......People were asking me questions and I could not answer or complete sentences. My train of thought was disrupted.
