Health anxiety- physical symptoms
I should probably also mention that I started
Lexapro
4 days ago- does this cause any physical symptoms? I refuse to google things anymore.

Health Anxiety- Help!
I went to the Urgent care and told the Dr all my symptoms and he said it was severe anxiety and prescribed me
lexapro
. Logically I know all my symptoms didn’t start until I read about them, but how do I stop this constant terror and fear?

My house is a mess !!
Am currently on Prozac, after having tried Cymbalta and
Lexapro
. Scared that i may have some kind of hoarding disorder. I live alone,with pets, and have always struggled with depression and social anxiety and at this point I cannot leave my house.

Weened myself off my
lexapro
and into a withdrawal a few months ago. Really missing it right now. Missing that numb, I don’t give a fuck, feeling. Honestly, when ur down, it’s even hard to get to the dr to get the script.

Having a really hard time.
I used to be on
lexapro
but I am in between jobs and don’t start my new job for a month so I can’t afford medication. I just need anyone with any advice or to just tell me it’s my anxiety and I am not dying. Thankful for any tips! Sorry if this post is all over the place. Thank you, Sara

I never thought I would be going through this.
I've tried
lexapro
and ended up back in the er with worse panic and anxiety. Now I'm just taking vitamins and natural supplements, changed my diet, do daily prayer and reading and standing on God's promises for healing. I refuse to except this is the way life is going to be for the rest of my life.

Lexapro hangover
Saw my therapist yesterday. When I told her what happened she told me that as we age we can’t handle meds at the normal strength as well. I’m 68 and I guess aged 😀 includes me! I’ve learned it can take 50 percent longer to metabolize! That probably leaves me in the dumper till Sunday I see little

Hello Everyone
When I was diagnosed with depression, I was put on
Lexapro
by my doctor. I did not feel any sort of change besides the mentality of being on anti-depressants. Ultimately, the anxiety kept growing stronger and deeper.

Gas and belching
I reacted badly to
Lexapro
after one dose. Doc says I’ll have to wait it out. I will not be taking this one again. How did any of you deal with the gas belching nausea and bloating. For me It’s the worst part of because it makes me more anxious

Getting off Lexapro
Stop taking
Lexapro
after 5 days I couldn't bare the side effects it was just too much. My anxiety got worse. My doctor didn't give me anything else, I just continue to take Gabapentin, Hydroxizin, Lamotrogine and Lorazepam. He up the dose of Lamotrogine by 25mg from 100 mg.

Interested in hearing how your intrusive thoughts started and what meds you take. Would be helpful.
Hi Everyone, I have suffered from anxiety for most of my life, but I was formally diagnosed with GAD in 2010 and put on
Lexapro
(cipralex in Canada). It worked well for many years with CBT. A pharmacist filled my dose wrong 2 years ago and I was taking half of what I normally take.

I started
lexapro
about 2.5years ago I was only on 5mg for a very long time about 2 years. Everyone would say there is no way that 5mg is strong enough to do anything but it worked for me.

? My doctor is considering putting me on one of them.
