I had it in my head I was starting this med today and I found myself here in a rabbit hole and not taking it. I was going to start at 2.5 mg. Has anyone started at this dose and had bad side effects. I took one pill of buspar back in 2021 I think and I don’t remember feeling anything crazy just calm I didn’t take anymore because it didn’t last that long and I didn’t realize it takes a while to work consistently. But please anyone who has tried a baby dose like 2.5 can you please tell me if it is a good place to start I am med sensitive and I am tired of all of this anxiety.

I have been struggling with anxiety most of my life now I am a 48 year old woman with perimenopause and anxiety and I have a bottle of buspar that my dr says will help I am really scared and crying as I type this because I don’t know who I am anymore and I want my life back please someone tell me a good story about this medication because I need to know that I have a chance to feel better. Because I am at my wits end.
