thank you so much for your comment!! i’m so glad the buspar worked for you! It’s a pretty great drug, i’m still happy with it. I think it’s wonderful you’re getting off the meds. I think that’s the real intended method to using these drugs, allow them to help you get through a rough period of time and then wean off. I wish you all the best!

@@robertmakesashow7089 thank you and i hope everything works out and that you keep getting better!!!

So the Buspar reversed your sexual side effects caused by Lexapro? I'm in a similar situation and just started Buspar and need some hope.

@@nickold4499 yeah ,it did for me! While Lexapro helped out alot, the emotional blunting and sexual side effects were a problem so my psychiatrist put me on Buspar and it worked wonders for me and i am now completely off meds. Give it some time and i am sure the Buspar will work fine for you and reverse those effects!! Hope things work out for you and stay positive!

@@incaindio8131 thank you so much for the reply and giving me hope! I'll definitely give it more time. After how long did you notice a difference on Buspar? I'm glad to hear you're off all meds! I'd like to eventually do that too once I reverse my side effects

Ugh, 😩 I absolutely know what you’re going through. It truly does not seem apparent how anything could possibly get better! I remember really dancing on the very very edge of quitting so many times in that period because I was so frustrated with the INCREASED anxiety and just the sheer weirdness of what I was going through. I’m glad you were able to get something from the videos. This is def not a platform to give you actual medical advice but I can say as just a random person on youtube that pushing forward when I was in the same place as you are now, was such a game changer for me and I hope you can swiftly navigate these uncertain times and make it through to the other side because you absolutely deserve to. I’m wishing you all the best and sending you positive energy and strength, you’ve got this 💪✨

Thank you. I understand everyone is different. Just looking for support to hang in there. Glad I found your videos. Today is a really good day. But I’m going in my third week so if I experience more anxiety and that numb feeling I can at least have hope that it could pass by week 4. I did go hang out with friends last night and I felt exactly like you described. So hoping this all passes. ❤

Thank you!!

Thank you!! :))

Thank you so much for your comment!! I hope you’re doing better! Sleep and healthy food!! wooo that is music to my earz😌✨✨✨ 🎶I’m not an expert (deep understatement) but be very careful with kratom. Firstly, it might give a false sense that these meds are working for you, and there is absolutely no good reason to take it if it’s not working for you. Try your best to just rely on the medication, exercise, sleep, and clean diet, then you can really assess if it’s working for you!! Also when you mess with your serotonergic system your body has a hard time equilibrating to the med…and it already takes soooo long to get there so better not to prolong the process! Again, I hope you’re doing incredibly!

again, not a medical professional here! But maybe if you have hypertension, potentially Wellbutrin, being a stimulant, may not be the move! But again, what do I know?! I’m glad metoprolol works!!!😌

i felt like this too!…i started the buspar first and then the wellbutrin about a month and a half later. it took me about 4-5 weeks before i felt the wellbutrin working on me. (it made me a little hyper for a couple weeks and also anxious) but around the 4-5th week i felt it really level me out and my anhedonia started to slowly get better. i think its still incrementally getting me better.

Hey, doing well! I need to do an update video. Still on the buspar! I started at 5 mg and then moved up to 10mg when i started, that worked for me. side effects just headaches and a lil zombie feeling for a week or two. My anxiety got a tiny bit worse before it got better. good luck! i wish you the best of health!

Wellbutrin made my anxiety worse for like 2 months, If I wasn’t already on buspar at that time i would’ve exploded like a time bomb. my personal non-medical opinion buspar is like 1000 times better than Wellbutrin for anxiety. Wellbutrin isn’t an anxiety drug its for depression. I honestly think Buspar is better for depression than Wellbutrin is for depression but everyone is different. I’m on the SSRI Zoloft it was a very, very very tough road took me like three months to really feel like it was working and those were hellish months. It did help me take the final edge off of my anxiety and depression that Buspar couldn’t really touch.

actually i didn’t, i was taking melatonin in the beginning because i heard it makes it more effective. i’m generally a good sleeper, my sleep hygiene is off the charts, i don’t drink coffee and i work out. I have heard some people get insomnia but it resolves in a few weeks. Hang in there!!!!✨

@@robertmakesashow7089 thanks brother it’s been a rollercoaster but there is progress

I did have insomnia for almost a month...
