giving in...

I'm going to start taking Lexapro. I've only taken Buspirone once for anxiety and never anything for depression but its time I start taking something. Wish me luck, I'm terrified of the side effects.

Good luck desire. I'm also cautious when it comes to side effects. It's hard since you get them before feeling any benefits, usually. Keep in mind if you do get any side effects, they usually go away as your body adjust to the med. Plus there are ways to help ease them. Like take with food if upsets your stomach. Lexapero gave me dry mouth for a while, so got in habit of carrying water with me. If you get concern about a side effect ask doctor, advice nurse or a pharmacist. Pharmacist at your local drugstore are great & easy to get quick advice.💛

Good decision and wish you luck don’t read the leaflet on side effects just think of it as a multivitamin 🤟🙂🎧🎹🎸🎶🎵🌞it WILL lift your mood.

Everyone's different when it comes to side effects. I had one minorly annoying side effect for a couple months, but after that it normalized. Lexapro has been really effective for my GAD, hopefully it will help your depression.

I would call it Stepping up... instead of Giving in.... You are actively doing something positive for your health.
