I tried buspirone for anxiety but it did nothing for me.

Yes--when the dose was too high (300 mg), it made me extremely anxious and unable to sleep (only 1-3 hours a night!). I currently take 100 mg a day (first thing in the morning with my first cup of coffee--it increases the affects of coffee for me!). I also take 25 mg of sertraline a day which seems to help with both my anxiety and depression. Based on my experience with bupropion, I agree with your doctor that you should experiment with decreasing your dosage....
