Tightness in throat and chest with anxiety meds
It helped but then I tried
Lexapro
, Effexor and Celexa - nothing changed. Now I’m on Pristiq and was doing ok but 5 months in and I still have trouble breathing. I’m a runner so this is frustrating!! Any body else have this experience or suggestions?

Day 4 of treatment
Within the last two weeks my symptoms have intensified severely so I went in to see a new doctor that prescribed me 10mg
Lexapro
. I'm still hopeful this will help me but the side effects are troubling- racing thoughts, loss of sleep and slight nausea. Any recommendations on
Lexapro
usage?

Insomnia and Lexapro
I’ve started taken 10mg
Lexapro
three nights ago and staying asleep has been so difficult...constant tossing and turning with racing thoughts. I’ve tried taking some Melatonin to get me back to sleep and it seemed to work last night but no luck tonight so here I am. /:

Is it Lexapro or my anxiety?
I started
Lexapro
last week and I was hopeful. However, I've had some pretty intense tension headaches. I've also missed 3 days of work this week because I've had feelings like I will actually pass out. I get dizzy, hot, and everything grays out for a bit.

Lexapro
Anyone taking it ? What time do you take it? I feel like it makes me super drowsy but then I wake up at night. Wondering what the best time is to take it.

Motivation is non-existent.
I don’t know if this is
Lexapro
calming me down too much or what but I have zero motivation to do anything... I have a day off today and all I want to do is lie on the couch but I also don’t want to watch anything on tv either like I just feel numb.

My lexapro has started to not work as well. Is there a good medication to help augment it?
Anyway, I am switching psychiatrist and I will see her Tuesday so I was going to ask if there is another medication that is not addictive that I can use with my
Lexapro
. Anyone know of any that has helped them?

Never thought I would be "that" person. Yet here I am. So much love and respect for those struggling. I get it now. I'm a mess & deserve it.
Started
Lexapro
about 4 weeks ago. Eating healthy. Working out. But I still miss me....will I come back? 2 suicide attempts in the last 2 months. Not proud. Or looking for sympathy.

lexapro
? I’m so nauseous today

Having a really hard time with acceptance and perspective
I recently tried
lexapro
for about 4 months and it just made me sort of depressed and mean. My PCP told me to stop that so I did. The reason I went on it is that I have seemed to develop this sort of health anxiety. Something I have never had before in my life.

My panic attacks lately
They changed my
lexapro
to effexor at the hospital but I was on effexor before and this didn't happen. I want this to stop. I have started begging god. I don't feel like I'm in the real world at all anymore. I am so scared I'm going to be put in a mental hospital again.

Bad day, one step forward two steps back
Decided that it was the increased dose of Wellbutrin and then decided I would start
Lexapro
today. Omg I feel like crap. I feel like I can’t be in my own skin right now if that makes sense ... not sure if that’s irritability or what. What do I do?

Any thoughts on SSRI's?
MD wants me to try
Lexapro
. Have never been on any SSRI's? Thoughts? Have a little phobia about trying new meds. Thanks for listening.

Don’t want to take meds anymore
Hey all I been on
lexapro
for long time on and off. But now I just have such an Aversion to medication, I just don’t feel like taking meds. Also whether I take it or not I feel the same. I could be off of it for 6 months or more.
