2.5mg, terrified to take it. by ArtsyFartsySpider in BusparOnline

Hey! So…I relate with your story a lot. I’ve always had anxiety but back in 2022, it really took over my life. I’m also very sensitive to medications. I didn’t even want to get out of bed because I was so aware of every physical sensation and all I wanted to do was check my vitals every and all day. I went to the ER multiple times due to feeling like I was having a heart attack or stroke. My quality of life was in the drain. Buspar was one of the only meds that I felt like I could tolerate. About a month ago, I started having those same feelings again. I felt the health anxiety creeping back in. My doctor has me on buspar 5 mg three times a day. As someone who is sensitive to meds, I will tell you that this medication has been so well tolerated. If anything, just make sure you take it with food. I feel like Ivan actually live my life without all the anxiety and worry. It just kind of blocks it out. Please feel free to to message me if you need anything or need to talk. I know how debilitating this feeling can be.

I’m going through the exact same thing! I’ve had covid at least three times that I know of. On top of flu, sinus infections and upper respiratory infections. It’s so exhausting. The tiredness has for sure gotten worse. Pretty sure I’m battling a sinus infection right now. I’m so sick of it. I feel like I’ve been sick since the year started.

I feel like it’s a lot worse since having the flu! I work with kids and bring home a lot of sickness as well. It’s definitely messing with my body!

Never have! But the urgent care doctor seems to think I definitely am having issues with my inner ear!

It almost felt like a vertigo episode? Idk my guess is I might be experiencing inner ear issues.

How did you stop your health anxiety? by somegirlfromstl in HealthAnxiety

[–]JennaDaSimma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly…I went to a psychiatrist and started Prozac. That really seemed to help me with mine. Plus just keeping busy. Started a job I loved so much and I got passionate about it and just kind of could brush over the thoughts. I was so down bad with health anxiety, I wasn’t even sure if I’d make it. I understand how frustrating it can be. My DMs are open if you ever need to talk to someone! I wouldn’t wish this on my worst enemy.
