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.

Klonopin
I have been taking buspar for a week plus my
lexapro
plus Xanax as needed. To me I thought the buspar was making the anxiety worse. I called the doctor and she wants me to stop the buspar today and start the Klonopin tomorrow? Thoughts. I feel like I am losing control.

Scared.
I was upped from 20mg of
Lexapro
to 40mg. That has been a week. Added buspar in plus my Xanax as needed. Now the Xanax is not taking the edge off.

Things Going Well But A Little Nervous
Paul is on 10 mg Prednisolone and 10 mg
Lexapro
daily. And he is taking Maxolon or Valoid (anti-nausea medication) as needed. At the moment our focus is to build his system up again with healthy food, good long rests and a bit of exercise where possible.

Rexulti, Electroconvulsive Therapy, or Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation?
I'm currently on 20 mg
Lexapro
, 20 mg Adderall (prescribed off-label for depression and lethargy), and 4 mg Klonopin. I don't tend to get my hopes up with new medications, because at best I only notice minuscule improvements.

Suffering from Anxiety
I made an appointment with my doctor and she placed me on
Lexapro
, that changed everything for me. The
lexapro
has helped me tremendously. The chest pain stopped after a few days, I felt so much better.

Intrinsic Factor test can it be wrong?
And have been on
Lexapro
for over 15 years. The 1st Dr had put me on Ativan because of shaking. Itapered off that and have been off for 8 months. I can’t figure out if these Test were all wrong or if I have PA.

Getting worse with meds
My sone was switched to
lexapro
from Zoloft. He has now been on a medication for just over a month. There has been no improvement and in fact the anxiety is worse and last night he voiced that he would rather die and go to heaven. I immediately stopped meds.

Really Bad Day at Work Today
I know I need medication, but after a bad experience with one (a generic version of
Lexapro
), which may have not been the medication's fault, we still don't know, I just hope this psychiatrist can prescribe the right one.

G.A.D
I'm on 10mg of
Lexapro
but even with it I feel exactly the same. I don't feel like I can safely leave the house, and school every day is a constant trigger.
