Hi Blessings, I took Buspar a few years ago and I had absolutely no effects, good or bad. I was on it for a couple of months. I was at the 'nervous breakdown' point then. So I guess everyone reacts differently like with so many other meds. I've had a horrible time with other meds like Effexor, Wellbutrin, and the dmd's (except for Ty). Give it a try over the weekend, especially if you think you really need this type of drug. Good luck, I hope you feel better soon !
