Hello,
So I have a problem I'm going to see my therapist for the first time on Feb 28 and yesterday I went to my general doctor because I've been having some stomach problems and I told him about my severe anxiety and how it's gotten worse to the point were I even have trouble speaking. So he then prescribed a medicine called Buspar and this is where my problem begins you see I've never been diagnosed with anxiety but the symptoms are right on point and I've taken a couple of certified test and they all said severe anxiety but it is still a self-diagnoses not from a doctor. So should I start taking Buspar or should I wait until I see a therapist? Because I've read stories online how some medicines can actually worsen mental disorders because it was treating the wrong disorder. To add on to the conflict I can't even go to college anymore because my fear and anxiety has gotten worse I feel like something bad is going to happen if I go to college whether it be stroke, heart attack, psychotic break etc....., these fears are ruining my life that's why I think I should start on Buspar but then another fear of mine is that I start taking this med and a underlying illness like schizophrenia or something gets triggered. So I was hoping if someone can give me some advice and maybe tell me if you're on Buspar or if it worked.
