Guest guest Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 When my daughter was younger her doc had prescribed this for her for the same reasons as your child. Unfortunatly I saw no benefit, however I didn't see any bad side effects either. Since this didn't help her we took her off of it after a short while. Every kid is different though.Sent on the Sprint® Now Network from my BlackBerry®From: Vivian Mir Date: Thu, 24 Sep 2009 04:25:56 -0700 (PDT)To: <deniseslist >; <sList >Subject: Re: BuSpar Hi everyone - my son's neurologist just prescribed BuSpar for anxiety, ADHD and obsessive compulsive syptoms.

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 Hi Vivian: I used to take BuSpar. I have Generalized Anxiety Disorder and had always had anxiety symptoms. When they flared up badly one year, I was prescribed BuSpar. It took about 3 weeks or so to kick in, but when it did, I felt a million times better. It did make me dizzy for the first 10 minutes or so after taking it, but that subsided. It was also very easy to stop taking; no ill side effects. That was about 8 years ago. I had started taking it again last year, but I didn't fare as well. It worked great for the anxiety and obsessive thoughts (nothing dangerous); they disappeared. But I was waking up from the strangest dreams with my heart racing pretty badly. I also got, what felt like, a zillion tiny needles bursting out of my body. It was quick and over in a flash, but freaky. I honestly wouldn't take it again, but it was so long in between that maybe they changed something that gave me that reaction...who knows. But, it did help me quite a bit. I hope this helps. B. > > Hi everyone - my son's neurologist just prescribed BuSpar for anxiety, ADHD and obsessive compulsive syptoms.
