Severely depressed
My psychiatrist is transitioning me from Trintellix to
Lexapro
. I am having a very rough go of it. I’m usually hopeful when I try a new medication but not so much this time. I just wonder, is anything ever going to work for me? Will I ever feel normal? This is so hard and the pain can be so great

Lexapro Withdrawal help me
So it’s been almost two weeks since five slowly tapered off of
lexapro
I’ve been feeling so tingling and light headed and blank that it’s scary. Crazy thing is I was feeling like this as I was tapering off.

Switching antidepressants
Trying to pass each day until the
Lexapro
kicks in. Months of tapering then trying something else to only have bad effects. I can't take it anymore!!! My mom is literally taking care of me, my kids, and catering to my husband so I can get through each day. This is ridiculous.

Worst anxiety of my life.
Is it the
lexapro
I'm taking? I have been taking it for 5 months so I don't know why this would start to happen now. I can barely see straight and my stomach is a mess. This feels so crazy that I am just crying and crying when I can (sometimes I am too scared to even cry).

Should I try something new?
I have been taking
lexapro
for many many years. It does its job but I only take it once a day. Is there something I could ask my doctor to go with it to make it better or is there something I could try to replace it with. I see my doctor tomorrow. Have a blessed day.

I have no idea why I'm like this.
depression and in currently on Wellbutrin but I'm getting weaned off it because it gave me either more anxiety or it just didn't help me with the overeating because when I screwed up my diet again it didn't really help me get back on track it just helps with the depressive feelings so I'm going to be put on

Depression/Anxiety
Though that wasn’t the case. 10th grade I was diagnosed with anxiety/depression and I was prescribed to
Lexapro
we then moved to another town and the same thing is just happening here I’m being singled out and someone always has something mean or smart to say so I stopped going.

Lexapro stopped working?
I’ve been on
lexapro
for 3 years now. 15mg. The past two months have been really stressful. The last two weeks I’ve been having so much break through anxiety. I’ve felt so off mentally, intrusive thiughts are back, racing heart, slurred speech, desensitization.

Medication antidepressant/anti-anxiety
My primary care doctor was treating me with
Lexapro
and Clonazapam for episoded of extreme anxiety. Maybe 3 pills a month and then I could go months without it. The nurse practictioner who took over for my PC doctor will only give me five Clonazapam pills at a time every 3 out 4 months.

New here!
Last year I tried
Lexapro
and it made things worse for me. I recently worked up the nerve to try Zoloft because things had gotten really, really bad. I'm on week 5 and I think it's helping.

Lexapro
20mg at 9pm.

health anxiety getting the best of me yet again
I know there could be hundreds of reasons why I could be having a headache, but I always think that I'm going to be the ONE person to have the most serious side effect of my medication (
Lexapro
). considering heading to the ER if I feel any worse than I do now, even though I know I'm probably okay...

Withdrawal
We decided I should go back on
Lexapro
. He told me to discontinue the Cymbalta and immediately start taking the
Lexapro
, at my original dose of 20 mg. No tapering down on the Cymbalta, no tapering up on the
Lexapro
.
