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!

Update on Brain Zaps after Stopping Lexapro
I took 1 10mg dose of
Lexapro
on Wednesday then just abruptly stopped. Unbeknownst to me, I must be very sensitive to medications, because even stopping after just that little, I am getting those electric hick feelings and mini-seizures some people who stop
Lexapro
get as withdrawal symptoms.

Lexapro day 2
Today was so much better! I ate a bagel before taking it and no nausea at all. Yesterday I took it on an empty stomach and that was a bad idea. I definitely got drowsy...hoping the side effects stay this low key from her on out. Can’t wait to feel the full effect that everyone speaks so highly about.

Chronic fatigue anyone? Constantly worrying about a major illness and what's causing what?
I started back on
Lexapro
but this time the side effects have been quite different. Is that possible? I feel exhausted all the time, can barely function on some days, and its a momumental effort to get out of bed.

Lexapro day 1
Day one of
lexapro
. Man they weren’t kidding about the side effects. My anxiety is sky high and nausea has come and gone but everyone says it’s hard in the beginning. I’m sticking with it in hopes of finally being freed from this anxiety nightmare! Keep your fingers crossed

Lexapro to Zoloft.
So I am starting to taper my
lexapro
and begin Zoloft. Any good experiences changing to Zoloft. I have been on
lexapro
for about 14 years. So damn tired of this anxiety. Psychiatrist seems to think my
Lexapro
has pooped out

New Health Anxiety
I used to be on
Lexapro
but it seemed to stop working and I want to try something else. I feel hopeless at this point. The anxiety in my mind is unbearable!

Extreme Anxiety Wave
I'm on 10mg of
Lexapro
but it has had no effect whatsoever on my anxiety other than making the full blown panic attacks less often but the daily stress is getting progressively worse. I see a therapist and a psychologist but they haven't been able to help me.

Medication Curiosity
I’m going to a doctor next weekend and the suggested medicine is
Lexapro
and a small dose of Xanax whenever I’m actually having an attack. Has anyone had any bad effects with this medicine?

Adderall Tolerance and Lexapro Issues
I'm currently taking adderall 30mg XR and 30mg IR and
Lexapro
10mg, but experiencing issues with both. I've built up tolerance to Adderall to the extent that it is essentially no longer helpful and the
Lexapro
has completely blunted my emotions as well as my sex drive.

Bad Dreams on Lexapro?
Anyone experience bad or unpleasant dreams while taking
Lexapro
(escitalopram)? I've been on 10mg since this past June and honestly I am ready to get off, as I believe it is causing me to have weird dreams about spiders (I dont like spiders).

It feels like my anxiety is getting worse.
Because along with the
Lexapro
, I was taking Benzonatate 3 times a day (as needed) for my respiratory infection and Vitamin D2. On Jan 23rd, I was finally able to see my primary care doctor.
