It has helped a little bit with my depression but haven't noticed any change with my anxiety. But, it might work for you.

I was on Buspar and it helped my anxiety. Unfortunately, when I got a new pdoc and he wanted to switch meds around he took me off, but I am thinking of asking him to put me back on it.

It is not a fast acting drug either. It made me sleepy at first and I think it took a few weeks to really work.

I've been taking it for a couple of months now. When I first started I thought it was great and now seems just ok. I always feel nauseated and dizzy for about an hour shortly after taking it and I really hate that.

Overall I think it is helping my anxiety but still want to take the occasional lorazempam when things get bad.

Buspar helps me, but I take it along with Prozac.
