I’m on Klonopin, was on Ativan, and recently put on
lexapro
and hydroxine for depression and anxiety. Nothing is helping. Do any of you who struggle with severe debilitating panic attacks each day and anxiety take any meds that are stronger than the ones I mentioned.

finished Neupro taper and looking for guidance on increasing my Gabapentin dosage
I also take Lithium and
Lexapro
for mood. Ideally, in due time I can reduce my
Lexapro
dosage but no immediate plans to embark on that journey.

Paying it forward for folks whose partner is undergoing treatment.
Medication, radiation,
Lexapro
, Gemtessa, Flowmax and the love from friends and family have been lifesavers. I always said that when I reached a point that I could support others that I would pay it forward to help support someone else, specifically the partners of those who are at this stage.

Anyone try clonidine as a replacement for lexapro or similar anti anxiety drug?
I’m trying out bupropion thinking helps with motivation and focus and taking
lexapro
which does help anxiety for sure but I know it’s hard to get off so was wondering would clonidine be as effective?

Am I alone? I don't feel like doctors understand how serious I am.
I have been on
lexapro
10mg. This is my 13th day I'm in now. I have become so hopeless. Is it this intense for lots of folks? Can anyone relate. Is there legitimately a chance that
lexapro
will help me? This is so excruciating. I am sorry to whine. Just desperate.

Experience with Escitalopram (Lexapro)
I am curious to know if anyone has been taking this medication for long term (10 years here). If so what has your experience been like? I was weaned off the medication 90 days ago and now I find my anxiety and intrusive thoughts are back (the reason I initially started the medication). I am not

just for support
Apparently escitalopram (
Lexapro
) stopped working for me so she put me on SNRI - velanxine 75 mg. Is anyone familiar with this drug? It worked wonderful for me for two weeks but suddenly the intrusive thoughts started coming back together with the anxiety.

cymbalta and pain relief?
My Dr will transition my
Lexapro
generic to Cymbalta. I also take buproprian and adderall. Cymbalta may help with my back nerve pain. Has anyone had any experience with this or any other chronic pain relief? Thank you Leslie

Lost and Confused
I was told to take
lexapro
by my provider and naturally I didn’t because I didn’t like the idea of taking medication like that. I continued to have attacks and was convinced to take the medication.

mothering with mental illness
I was started on
Lexapro
this month but I think it’s making me feel worse which upsets me because everyone said it was a big help to them but I seem to be having reactions to it.

Lack of energy
Is it normal to like a log is tied to you. 4 days into the 10 mg of
Lexapro
agitation and I am laying in bed and it feels like I am weighted. Lost 10 lbs from all the stress etc. It exhausting.

cannabis!?
I'm only on 5 MG of
lexapro
now and I feel like although I'm still miserable and not in tune in life it gives me a sense of belief and maybe that's why the term medical Cannabis is something that is being researched on.

It been a month since I started taking my anxiety medication again
I started taking
Lexapro
and it has helped significantly. I still have not gone back to my usual routine because I am still afraid something might change. My biggest issue was always the feeling of being dizzy. Its really difficult to control.

Switching depression meds?
I was on
Lexapro
and it made me manic, I've been weaning off and I now feel like a zombie who wants to cry all the time. My doctor wants me to start a mood stabilizer but I don't want my brain to keep changing like this. I think I do need something else but everything seems to make it worse.

It's so frustrating.
My
Lexapro
is barely scratching the surface of my depression. I don't know what to do. It so frustrating.
