waves of orgasmic bliss
oh. my. god. buspar is my new favorite drug in the whole wide world. about an hour after i popped the first pill, these waves were washing over me, like i had just benefited from wild donkey sex. it scared me some to be at work, i felt so good. the waves have subsided, but the release from the anxiety-triggered, anvil-heavy, physical pressure continues - which of course makes me wonder if i should have been engaged in a sexual marathon this weekend and could have avoided the drugs altogether - except that with so much anxiety compressing me from all sides, i have had zero desire for nookie for days. which may be changing. hmmmmm.
i couldn't have started the meds at a better time. my sister called this afternoon with the results of an mri her dr ordered last week. she has had episodic vertigo for years, but she's had it for weeks this time, and worse than ever - she can't work, she can't drive, she can't do much but lay on the bed and try to figure out which combination of eyes closed and shut makes her head hurt the least. so today she learned as a result of the mri that both the radiologist and her primary think she has multiple sclerosis. because, you know, neither she nor the rest of us has had enough piled on in the last twelve months.
and i care, but, look ma - no panic!
if it weren't for justin, i would try to marry buspar. which is no more ridiculous than the woman who married a dolphin today, when you really think about it.

Hooray for the drugs! Although I'm rather disturbed by the image of wild donkey sex. Not to mention the human-dolphin consummation.
Buspar...give me the low down on that stuff and why it's ok for pregnancy? Is that a brand name or drug name?
I am thinking it might be just the ticket for lowering my blood pressure which would be a very good thing given my current concerns. And it works FAST.
They may also help the kids live to see another birthday;)
Glad to see you feeling better though:)
Is Buspar better than Xanax?
I want me sumadat.
Will file this info under "Future crises prevention".
Glad you have a cure for the anxiety. May you find that you have no need for it soon because everything with the little Z will be fine. The waiting is the worst, hope you get more news soon.
So sorry about your sister, I know this must be really scary right now but MS is manageable, hope is not lost.
You will all be in my thoughts.
Wow, that does work fast! I'm glad to hear it's giving you some relief. I'm so sorry about your sister, though, and hope she gets better news.
Happy New Year!
jill, buspar is the brand name for buspirone, which is a category b drug for pregnancy, meaning no testing has been done on pregnant women but all the animal tests suggest no risks and no problems have been reported when used by pregnant women. my dr also prefers it to xanax because it's non-addictive. the literature says that, unlike the anti-anxiety drugs in the same family as xanax, it can take 2-3 weeks to really dig in and take effect, so my experience may be unique. i have taken someone else's xanax before, and i've found it helpful but not nearly as powerful as the buspar, for what it's worth.
i have to say, if there was valuable talk therapy available to me, i would prefer to go that route. but until i make any headway in that department, i'm holding on to the buspar.
I have just been reading your blog I hope you don't mind. I want to pop in and wish you the best of luck with little Z.
Yay for Buspar! So glad they got you on something that seems to be working so well already! So sorry to hear about your sister. Very scary.
