Celexa and BuSpar

[danithegirl]

Anyone else taking BuSpar with Celexa? I saw a psychiatrist today (per my primary doctor's suggestion), and we increased from 30 to 40 and she prescribed BuSpar. I'm going to take it before bed per her suggestion for my first dose. Any success stories? This is my first medication full-on geared for anxiety, so fingers crossed!

Buspar (buspirone) is a GAD specific med which only works for a few, but it can boost the effectiveness of SSRIs and reduce some of their side-effects too, so it's definitely worth trying.
