My husband did, he really liked how it worked but got dizzy and that side effect never went away so he had to try something else.

I had the same issue—I was fine on a lower dose but didn’t feel much of the effects I expected, but just 15 mg made me so dizzy I would have to lie down for 20 minutes after taking it.

I use it with Wellbutrin and Vyvanse, takes the edge off my anxiety.

I took it throughout college and it was helpful sometimes, but yes I felt dizzy and - despite going pretty high on the dosage range - never thought Buspar was really kicking the anxiety/depression as much as an SSRI. Transitioned to Zoloft which helped but then made my ADHD more noticeable lol

For those who take it, what’s your dosage?

Here is my dilemma: I was passed up for manager promo last year and rightfully so a lot of my feedback was definitely correlated to me not properly handing my symptoms causing a good bit of inconsistencies in my performance especially if I lacked interest.

I recently got diagnosed with ADHD. I'm 31 and found this only because b school and post mba consulting job was/is much more challenging than anything I did before. What I'm confused about is that even as a teenager I could read entire books overnight. But the last two years of high school I started selectively zoning out and the problem has become worse since. I just realised it now. My doctor has suggested treating depression (I was also unaware of this) with Wellbutrin first (contd)

My psychiatrist today revealed to me that I may have ADHD, still a hypothesis that he is still exploring but from my personal experiences and discussions with therapist, it seems likely.

One example of personal experience is my ongoing prep for case studies as I'm interviewing with a number of firms. I do struggle to keep focus and generally take a bit longer to finish them, specifically the structuring of the case. Does anybody else feel the same way and any recommendations to overcome this?
