I have an anxiety disorder that is controlled by antidepressants, and I've had no major problems on Atkins. I would never go off my meds, and I don't think that the ketogenic diet has made the anxiety any less, but it is true that not binging on sugary carbs just makes me feel overall better.

Buspar shouldn't be a problem. Welcome back, and you'll be fine!

I've got bipolar disorder, and I've been pretty much the same since I began Atkins. Didn't change much for me, mood-wise.
