> Unfortunatately when I tried buspar had been on benzos for years at it was new and 5mg was all they prescribed so nothing at all. I heard if you've taken benzos it doesn't work is that true? Good luck Garnet. Phillipa

Hi Phillipa,

I've never heard of that last statement, but it's interesting. I was never a consistent or long-term benzo user, although I love how effective Xanax is with severe anxiety. Every time I've gone of xxRIs, and eventually succumb to anxiety and visited a doctor and got something like Ativan temporarily--not only did it completely 'erase' my anxiety--but my mood also turned around 100%--like I was normal, content, and even happy. Just a tiny .5 dose of Ativan would have that effect on me.

So maybe you didn't take enough when you tried it? If you are trying to get off benzos, maybe you could try Buspar again? I take 15 mg. twice a day. I"ll let you know if it continues to work in the long run.

:)
