Modern humans must learn how to relate to psychoactives
responsibly, treating them with respect and awareness,
working to minimize harms and maximize benefits, and
integrating use into a healthy, enjoyable, and productive life.

DOSE:
30 mg oral Pharms - Buspirone (pill / tablet)
BODY WEIGHT: 168 lb
Well, I've had a bottle of Buspar for about 3 months now. After doing some reading on the internet, I decided to test whether or not the drug could be used to induce a pleasurable experience. Boy, was I ever wrong.

Setting: Condo, I'm all alone, relaxing on the couch watching some TV

I take 3 10mg pills of the Buspar all at once. For the first fifteen minutes, nothing happens. However, around 20 minutes after ingestion, I begin to feel very dizzy and light-headed. I get off the couch and try to move around, but I stumble and fall over. My balance was not what it usually is. After about an hour, the unpleasant effects subsided and I returned to normal.

I did not enjoy Buspar in a recreational sense. It just made me dizzy, light-headed, and feel like crap.
