Switching from Cymbalta to Lexapro

[Wally76]

Hi All,

Had adverse reactions to Cymbalta and am being switched to Lexapro for Anxiety. Can anybody give me some positive feedback on this med.

I was on Lexapro for years and it was amazing! I had zero symptoms of anxiety; I lived abroad, traveled, did roadtrips by myself, was fiercely independent. For me unfortunately I went through a trauma and my brain structure changed and the Lexapro was no longer helpful.

But when I was on it I loved it. I was slightly fatigued but nothing too severe. I did gain a little weight but then again I didn't have an understanding of nutrition and was eating whatever I wanted.

I hope that helps
