Anxiety/ depression/ thyroid?
Prozac didn’t work for me,
lexapro
made me cry, so just got back on cymbalta since 5 days. Twice 30 mg. Doc lowered armour from 90-60 about a month ago. Mood was prett6 good yesterday but kinda low today. And tired. Is it cymbalta that needs to settle? Will it work again?

Can it be (mild) serotonin syndrome?
Prozac still in my blood, 10mg
Lexapro
and the hydroxyzine... Or is my anxiety playing me tricks? Clonazepam that I just took (0.5 mg) is having some effect

Feeling awfully depressed and physically sick, switched from Lexapro to Prozac
I was on 15mg of
Lexapro
. Week 1 was lowering to 10mg and starting on 10 of Prozac. Week 2, lower to 5 of Lex, up to 20 of Pro. Week 3, off Lex and 30 of Pro. Now, for the last week, which is essentially week 4, its been hellish.

Switch to lexapro?
Should I switch to
lexapro
? Would that help even though celexa stopped working? I have a family, and last year was rough with hypothyroidism, ibs, anxiety etc. mood wise I was good on the cymbalta but side effects were too much.... Tired of this. Just want one that works.

Yikes I’m a (nervous) wreck just after switching from Prozac to lexapro
He switched me to
lexapro
10 mg. It’s the second day and I’m in a constant state of panic! He gave me hydroxyzine but today it’s not doing enough and I’m worried I can’t take it anymore. It’s probably my anxiety that is scaring me, but it is scaring me. Is dose too high?

How Long Did Lexapro Side Effects Last for You?
I am thinking of finally taking my
Lexapro
medication, I just don't want the initial side effects to affect my job performance.

Fatigue and malaise from anxiety and depression
Im currently in the middle of tapering from
Lexapro
onto Prozac. My doctor said that
Lexapro
is more of a sedating ssri and Prozac is energizing. I haven't noticed much of a difference just yet. Hoping to get a little feedback on how to get through this and get my life back. Ps.

Need advice... im losing it
I was prescribed xanax and
lexapro
but eventually stopped taking them because the
lexapro
did nothing for me and i became so dependant on the xanax that i would take 2 at a time and my panic attacks were so frequent that i was just popping them left and right.

Bad anxiety, I feel so overwhelmed
I went to talk to a therapist for a couple of months and she told me to take
lexapro
. I am on 10mg. I felt better for a period of time and now I’m at the same place I was. I feel so overwhelmed and depressed, I have no excitement and joy in my life right now..

Anxiety Help
I already take
Lexapro
10mg and have Xanex available but I would rather not take it. The only relief I get is when I am asleep. But I've slept so much over the past few days I have all this built up anxiety. When I try to exercise I get a little nauseous. Any tips on how to cope?

Seeing Psychiatrist for First Time in Years
After suffering severe dizziness/vertigo after taking
Lexapro
once a few weeks ago, which no one is still sure if it was due to the medication, the fact that I didn't eat for 12 hours, or if it was a combination of the two or maybe it was just my anxiety being worst (they do say medication makes you

Is Kava Better than meds?
The only issue I see with Kava is it could damage your liver and it could interact badly with
Lexapro
if I ever decide to take it again, but then again I'd be smart and wait a few days after stopping Kava to start up
Lexapro
again if I want to go that route after all. Does anyone know about Kava?

medication stopped working again
i’ve been feeling very down lately. about six months ago my medication(
lexapro
15 mg) stopped working, and i relapsed and was hospitalized. i was increased to 20mg and that worked for a while... but the depressed moods, the irritability is starting to come back... highly reminiscent of six months ago

5 days in on lexapro
My throat muscles will tighten too but I know that’s related to anxiety and most likely a side effect from the
lexapro
. Anyone have that happen when starting
lexapro
? Nothing I can’t handle when looking at the big picture.

Lexapro
Today I saw my doc and he highly recommended
Lexapro
to help with my anxiety. I’ve been going to him since I was a kid and I trust him a great deal. Hoping it helps!

On Prozac since three weeks, so much anxiety though? Will this pass or try a different SSRI?
Should I stick to the Prozac or switch to
lexapro
? Will this get better? Also have to p so much more often....
