Depressed.

[Jax27]

It’s been months since I last wrote on here and I’ve missed the support. I felt like I was doing good. Felt like I had everything in control with being on meds. The past two years while on lexapro I’ve gained so much weight which has put me in such a depressed state. I’ve tried to lose the weight the past 6 months and nothing is working. I do feel like I’m ready to start weening off my medication.... I don’t know. I’ve been low energy the past year with the higher dosage. I’m pretty sure a lot of the weight gain came from that? Just not being motivated. Has anyone had this experience with 20mg Lexapro? Wishing everyone happiness and love.

Two siblings have separately told me they are less motivated, during this Coronavirus pandemic. Due to our age we have all been told to shelter in place. This alone has exacerbated many people’s weight concerns. If you have also been affected by the Coronavirus directives, you may continue to experience issues in these areas, both on & off your medication. I personally would work on any plan B with one’s doctor under these Coronavirus circumstances.
