lexapro
Hi Anmu, try not to focus on the increase. It is to be expected for the body to
have some reaction as to that meaning that it is being stabilized. Give it time to
reach full efficacy. It's been an excellent drug for myself. Wish you the same. xx
Yes that is normal, it is your body getting used to the meds
This is normal. It took me about 4-6 weeks to feel the full effects of 10 mg Lexapro. Just try to be patient as it has really helped me. Good luck and hang in there.
Yes, I am a week into my increase from 10 mg to 20 mg. I do see a difference, however I do agree with you I do feel less emotions and kind of on autopilot if that makes sense. I'm hoping that will pass as goes on my body adjust the medication. I've also been increased on my Seroquel from 20 mg to 50 mg to help me sleep through the night. Which is currently working knock wood. Side effects to my stomach are there but it's not as bad as when I tried Zoloft, that was horrible! Keep strong take one day at a time except the small steps and realize that this is all part of your recovery! You will get there be thankful for this group and that we have each other to share and then with and compare are experiences. ❤️💪🙏
