This is getting so severe it's affecting family situation.It sounds like you might be having a manic reaction due to the combination of antidepressants (BuSpar, despite being marketed for anxiety, is basically an antidepressant and has been known to trigger mania). Call your pdoc (page him/her if possible), and let your family know that you're having a drug reaction (if you're comfortable talking to them about it, of course).
