    I took buspar several years back. I hated it! Every once in a while I would get a "jolt" that went through my whole body. This sound silly, but it was the same sensation as when you stick your tongue on a 9volt battery. (Something we dared each other to do as kids.)

     Hope this helps!

    Perhaps you would benefit from some counseling to confront your panic over you diagnosis. I dont know anything about Buspar but i notice youve asked about a number of SSRI 's and antidepessants Medications can become addicting but its not automatic and under the care of your Dr, when it's time to wean off something, they should be able to guide you.



    If you just can't consider one of these meds, I think talking to someone might help. I'm stage IV and I wish I could have your diagnosis.

    Thank you so much . That's exactly my point . My heart knows I should be celebrating but physically my mind won't let me go there and I litterally have the shakes all day long and my heart beats so fast.

    I'm sorry to hear about your situation , I read alot of the entries just because I want to pray for everyone on here . You must think I'm such a whiner. Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to me.
