I don't know if this helps at all but a couple years ago I started getting the same type of anxiety you are describing and you don't want to say anything because you don't want to appear as "weak". I put it off too long and eventually ended up with an anxiety attack so bad I had to call my hubby to take me to the doctor in tears. They started me on an anti-depressant which really helps the anxiety. But I must also mention that I took a bit of time off work and eventually decided what was best for me was to cut back my hours as well permanently. This has forced us to make some cutbacks financially but it was all worth it because my anxiety is under control now. And I don't feel weak at all....just happy again.

Hi Jaynie. I've been on Buspar for years. It does help to calm and help with sleep, but I've found it's nowhere near as good as meds like Xanax or Ativan for anxiety. Hope you feel better taking it. Can't hurt.
