Lexapro for Anxiety
Hi, Has anyone had much success with
Lexapro
for anxiety disorder? I was prescribed it, and tried to take it several times, but even at the lowest dose 5 mg., after a week, I wake up in the middle of the night with debilitating anxiety/panic and I stop taking it.

Neck Injury and Parkinson’s
Started
lexapro
. Sister drug to celexa. Helped with emotions but I couldn’t walk again and return of severity of symptoms. Tried c/l, 0 help. Friend told Me about NUCCA chiropractor. What the hell? He works on the top of your neck. Thought he was a quack but friend said different.

Anxiety
I told my PA about how I thought my insomnia might have been caused by the prozac and she suggested it shouldn't be, but just to be safe she suggested I go off the prozac Monday and try
Lexapro
starting Wednesday or Thursday. I've been on prozac for almost seven weeks and my mood is variable.

Depression and Anxiety all time high
I started
lexapro
and was about a month in and had to stop because I swear it was increasing both. But lately I’ve been having really intrusive thoughts, especially about not having the will to live or that my kids would be better off without me.

2nd night with no sleep
Hi, I’m only 17 and I started noticing symptoms of RLS at the beginning of this year once I started taking my antidepressants (
Lexapro
). When I told my doctor she just lowered my dosage which was helpful for a bit but it eventually got worse again.

How to get off kolanapin?
I’m 31 I recently switched to Zoloft because my
lexapro
stopped working for me after 10 years of being on it. As I was switching medications my dr gave me kolanapin 0.5 mg to help with the transition.

Started Lexapro 9 days ago...
I started at 10mg (my prescribed dose) 9 days ago. I took 10mg for two days, was a total mess , then went down to 2.5mg for 3 days. Now back up to 5mg. I’ve been having ongoing physical anxiety (tight chest and stomach ). I’m wondering if it’s helpful to steadily move the dose up to the prescribed dosage

Decaceptyl and Escitalopram (Cipalex/Lexapro)
Hi all, In advance of bowel resection and hysterectomy in September, my gynae surgeon wants me to have a Decaceptyl 3 monthly injection. This should calm/reduce endo inflammation in area closest to my bowel and lowers risks of any damage when operating around the nerves which control my bowel, bladder

Ativan
Hello, I have been taking
lexapro
for about 6 months now and was also prescribed Ativan for emergencies. I’ve never taken it because I’m scared of what it will do. Lately I’ve had some bad attacks that I could use it for. For those who have taken it can you describe what it does to you?

He put me on
Lexapro
. I have IBS so the stress is really bothering my stomach. I live alone so getting through each day is a struggle. I know Jesus is with me though to guide me and give comfort

Late Night Thoughts
I am on
Lexapro
, gained close to 40 pounds and I associated the weight gain to the pills, but in reality I was drinking more than I have in the past because it was a way to shut up my mind.
