Anyone Else Highly Distractible? Potential ADD Comorbidity?
My current medication
Lexapro
is doing wonders for my anxiety, obsessions, and compulsions. However, I am still highly distractible. My brain does not have the activation energy it needs to start tasks and stay on task. I would say it is close to impossible to get work done.

Lexapro - increasing dosage?
Hello I’m on
Lexapro
(Escitalopram) 10 mgs and have been for 4 months. One aspect of the benefits was that my sleeping was much better. However for the last week or two I have been waking up very early again and a bit down.

1st day of medication
I took 5mgs of
Lexapro
today. I really hope it works because I just don't know what to do anymore. I feel lost. I had to cancel a family vacation because of my anxiety. I hate myself for ruining my parents vacation.

"I'm Just a Kid"
I started
Lexapro
three days after my initial intake and I couldn't believe how well it worked. The doctor told me it would take two to six weeks to kick in, but I noticed progress on day 3. It was WILD! From then on life has bee mostly onward upward. Little things stopped bothering me.

Any help is appreciated - High anxiety
I currently lake 10mg of
lexapro
, 1 mg of risperdal and 30mg of buspirone. It feels like nothing is really helping. I'm always scared of having a heart attack. My mother passed of heart disease at 58 but I've been told it only runs in the females on her side.

It's my forth day of medication with
Lexapro
. I still have not been able to sleep as well as I would want to. Still I have been feeling a bit better untill today. My biggest issue has been the feeling of unbalanced. For the past couple of days it has not been that bad.

Not the best
Going back to
Lexapro
I guess. Not happy that it flatlines me, but can’t risk any more dreams. Depression is not fun.

Cross Tapper Meds?
I'm supposed to switch from
Lexapro
to Zoloft on a cross tapper, but I'm super nervous. for those not familiar with what it is...you lower the dose of the original medication and add the smallest does of the new med. So I'd be taking 10mg
lexapro
and 25mg of zoloft for the next 8 days.

Semen Red/Brown Colour
I recently started taking
Lexapro
for my OCD. As with any antidepressant, it greatly reduced my sex drive. I must have gone down to masturbating twice a week maximum. Recently however, I had noticed that my semen would be this red brown colour.
