zeguma,
Thank you so much for answering! I don't have a computer at home so I'm sorry for the delay. It took me a while to find what happened to this post.
I guess that my doctor is using the Buspar as an antidepressant. In reading about it more it seems like it is used mainly for anxiety and secondarily as an antidepressant. I am on 45 mg a day of Buspar.
The Klonopin was just added. I take a half milligram in the morning and a half milligram in the evening for a total of one mg a day.
I'm feeling lower now than I have and after reading about people's experiences with Klonopin and residual depressive effects from that medication I'm having strong doubts.
I know I need something for anxiety but it appears that my depression is being undertreated.
What now? I feel like some sort of freakish pill popper taking two drugs.
Thanks again Zeguma for your help. I wasn't ignorning you but don't get to use the computer as much as I'd like to.
power
