Do you have both anxiety and depression? Buspar is typically used to boost the effect of an SSRI that either pooped out or is not working well enough. In my case, Buspar didn't do anything except give me side effects (don't remember what exactly though -- I think it was a bit of weight gain and dizziness). I have heard doctors say Buspar is a fairly weak medication. Has Bupropion helped? If so, perhaps you could have your doctor increase it to 450mg, or he or she might add an SSRI to it.
