Crippling Anxiety
I've been prescribed
lexapro
but I'm so afraid to take it because of the risk of side effects. Anyone else take
lexapro
? If so did you have bad side effects and how long did it take to kick in? Also any other techniques you use to combat your anxiety? Thanks for any help guys.

Escitalopram/Lexapro after 8 weeks
Hello I’m around 8 weeks now on escitalopram and certainly the depression and anxiety levels have substantially decreased but I do feel I have less energy too. I’m taking 10 mgs in the morning now (I was taking it at lunchtime) to see if it helps getting me going a bit better when I wake up. I have a

High creatine levels. Severe anxiety!
I take
lexapro
10mg and klonopin as needed. After I sprained my ankle badly, every time I thought of it I would get nauseated!

Lexapro
After trying to bear this anxiety and depression the natural way, I have decided to start
Lexapro
. The natural did work a little, but I need something better. My doctor just sent it the subscription to the pharmacy.

Anxiety
My doctor up my dosage of
lexapro
from 10mg to 20 mg . This is my fourth day on the new dosage and I feel horrible. More depressed more anxious. My kids see me in bed crying , not eating , not being able to function . It’s like being in my own hell of thoughts .

Increasing dosage on Escitalopram
Good evening I’m doing well after 8 weeks on 10 mgs of Escitalopram (
Lexapro
). In the UK 10 mgs seems to be the usual dosage prescribed for moderate GAD. I’m wondering what the benefits are of increasing the dosage as a lot of people (mainly outside UK) seem to do this.

Escitalopram/Lexapro - too relaxed?
Escitalopram has helped me with my anxiety and depression - I’ve been taking 10 mgs at lunchtime for 7 weeks - but it’s almost like I’m too relaxed. In the mornings I can’t seem to get going and I don't care much about doing things that need to get done. I have been sleeping so much better but I am

How do you change antidepressants?
I think the
Lexapro
I have taken for 4 years has pooped out. I am going to mention this to the doctor at my next appointment in July. I know a lot of times people have to change meds. I had a really hard time starting medication as I have a pill phobia and really don't want to take anything.

New here 🕊
I have good and bad days in terms of motivation and I'm on 15 mgs of
Lexapro
which I take at night. I use medicinal marijuana in conjunction with my anti-depressant and prefer it to using the Benzos I'm prescribed and keep on hand for when I still have difficulty sleeping or having a panic attack.

Overall opinion of anti depressants
Have tried Zoloft,
lexapro
and mirtrazapine. None have really helped the depression and have at times made me more anxious. I was perfectly ‘normal’ before all of this occurred. I know I need to do something just not sure what. Thank you,

MASS CONFUSION REIGNS AGAIN ... for me anyhoo
And they are:- * LEXAM *
LEXAPRO
and * ESCITALOPRAM I have prescriptions for them all in my possession. But I'm extremely confused as to why I am taking them. (FYI ... so is my GP for that matter), I have tried to Google them, but that only seemed to increase my confusion.

My OCD, Anxiety, and Panic.
I went back into the outpatient program, started individual therapy, and have been put back on the
Lexapro
. I stared at 20mg a day, but a couple weeks ago, just as I was feel a little better, I had a panic attack out of nowhere.
