I am on my third day of the buspar. I don't know if I'm less anxious or not. But I definitely notice some changes. I feel like I am on a mega-dose of caffeine. I have a lot of energy and am getting a ton of stuff done. I seem to have gained the ability to see that something needs doing and to just do it and complete the task, instead of putting it off, or doing it halfway and then quitting. I didn't even realize I had a problem with that, but hey, this is great! (And my boss is pleased with my increased work output. ) Also, could this be possible, I am more talkative and social? I went for a walk yesterday and stopped to talk to 3 strangers I met along the way. I never do this. And today, for the first time ever, I visited the new cafeteria at work, which I have avoided since December, because I didn't want to run into people I know. Anyway, I did run into 2 acquaintances there today and chatted with them for a while. It was great! What was the big deal before?

I'm not sure if these are supposed to be the effects of buspar, and I know the early effects can go away after you settle down on the med, supposedly. Having never been on meds, this is fascinating to me.
