I’ve been on this medication for two weeks it has caused some sleep issues after the first week as far as every time I’m nodding out or waking up I have constant body jerks or movements such as grabbing a tool using a tool facial expressions etc. Anyone experiencing any issues of the sort? Thanks
Buspirone - Buspar and sleep twitches?

Hi, Crop!
"Musculoskeletal
Common (1% to 10% of users): Musculoskeletal aches/pains
Uncommon (0.1% to 1% of users): Muscle cramps, muscle spasms, rigid/stiff muscles, arthralgias"
Looks like it's uncommon but side effects generally subside over a couple of weeks so you might want to report this to your doctor for advice.
