> I saw weight gain as a side effect when I researced some sights on buspar. I'm on lexapro (10mg) and clonpin (not sure how to spell)(.5), and I was doing good for a long time, but now I feel too stressed and anxious. My mom passed away in February. I was a tough year that has torn my family apart. Now, trying to work with my sisters to take care of her things is a nightmare. The anxiety keeps getting worse, despite my meds. A counselor mentioned buspar. I'm not sure that I want to change meds, maybe just increase? I don't know what to do. I'm so frustrated, anxious and feeling sorry for myself. It sucks
>What your feeling may be part of the grieving process. Plus I guess your talking about legal matters (her estate or whatever). I lost my dad March 4th and it was very hard. I have let my siblings take care of all the legal matters. They call me and I ok everything. I didnt want any part of it. I am getting past it!!!! Someone I know also takes lexapro. She went through a hard time and was losing it. She increased her dose to 15mg and got things back together. That may be all you need!!! You may just need some more time to pass. If the klonopin helps when you take it, tell the doc and he or she can increase your daily dosage until you get past this stressful time in your life. More than once I have thought my lexapro was pooping out in the last year. Each time I have rebounded!!! TAKE CARE!!!!
