Buspirone induced?

Unread post by pcocas »

I know it is early, but I got off of Buspar (very rapidly) about 6 weeks ago. I noticed sexual dysfunction on a high dosage, and have experienced PSSD-like symptoms (no libido, emotional blunting) since quitting all together. I realize Buspar is not an SSRI, but is it possible it could do this?

For reference, I am a woman, and this is very frustrating for me and my partner. I learned that buspirone was the wrong medication for me, and that my psych put me on an excessively high dosage that I could not handle for months. I ended up in the ER with suicidal ideation.
