In reply to Somebody must be taking Buspar, posted by henryO on September 27, 2004, at 16:28:20
I took buspar in conjunction with effexor for my depression and anxiety associated with BipolarII, GAD, and panic attacks. The buspar worked a treat - EXCEPT - I had very painful headaches that did not resolve themselves after several weeks. Aside from that, it did seem to quell my depression effectively. At the time I was very miserable at not arriving quickly at the correct med and dosage yet. I had been taking 10mg in the morning, and 20mg at night, for a total of 30mg per day. I was quite disappointed because I felt so much better otherwise.
We switched to Wellbutrin and that seems to have done the trick. headaches vanished and this med has complemented the effexor well.
good luck,
