Need Immediate Advice
I've taken
Lexapro
as usual and I have bands on my wrists designed to help decrease nausea but I'm still extremely anxious. Any ideas for how to survive?

Need advise from people who have been using antidepressants long term
I have been on
Lexapro
for more than 10 years, I am a 50 years old woman, I have been fine but the last few months I am really miserable, I am taking vitamins, hormones. I am very scared of having to change antidepressant. Anyone had their medication stopped working ?

ANXIETY ON REPEAT...
And it's gotten worse for me throughout the years I'm on Xanax 1 mg Prozasin and
Lexapro
. I am 27 years old and I look at myself and say how can I possibly be taking all these medications at this young age with three kids.

Worse period pain after depo?
Previously suffering from depression, the depo magnified it ten fold and forced me onto
Lexapro
to treat it. In April of 2017, I never got the shot again, because I didn't want the mind screwiness I was getting. I'm not sexually active. I took the shot for my already existing period pains.

I'm such a goof....
After 9 months of trying anything and everything for anxiety, I gave up and was prescribed 10mg
Lexapro
today. The problem??? I'm terrified to take it! Lol. Took half (5mg) and just waiting. Anyone else take it?

GAD - see a doctor soon
I am being treated with
lexapro
which works for me enough to make my world calmer and safer for everyone around me. I believe that untreated GAD is very dangerous to those who have it, their loved ones and everyone on the highway.

Hi! I am new here and having some trouble with anxiety.
I started having panic attacks daily about a year and a half ago and went on
Lexapro
which really helped. I also have some xanex which I only take in an emergency. I decided to go off medication almost two months ago because I gained about 20 pounds and that made me even more depressed.

Need some support... Please!
Was on
lexapro
for 7 years, then switched to celexa (cheaper) for last 10 years. Has worked well until now. I am really scared as I also have bp problems and I can tell the anxiety is making that worse.

Prozac (fluoxetine)
I am currently undergoing a transition between
Lexapro
(generic form) and Prozac (generic form - fluoxetine) and I have panic disorder and I suspect GAD as well. I've only been diagnosed by a PCP and have never seen a psychiatrist.

Increasing lexapro from 10mg to 20mg
Did it help anyone? Is increased anxiety normal? I'm afraid of meds to be honest. I was very anxious at 10mg. On it for four months then started taking 15mg. Took 20mg this morning & I just feel more anxious. Not sure what to do.

Scared for my friend
I think my friend is being mis diagnosed and mis treated for his anxiety, he goes to therapy and is on
lexapro
for his anxiety, but he clearly doesn't have anxiety or atleast not horrible.

Fluoxetine... going good for a week, now anxiety is back 😔
I switched from the
lexapro
to the Prozac (generic fluoxetine).. I felt so much better for the past five days but this morning I woke up feeling agitated and panicky. Why??? Someone please tell me this is normal because of the transition and will go away. I liked feeling normal again!!

Falling off the mountain
Weaned off those drugs and started 10 mg of
lexapro
. No effect. Doubled and wham again. Crippling anxiety. I feel like I have been reset and lost thirty years of forward progress. I'm so lost...

Breaking down in tears everyday
I started
Lexapro
(which I've taken) in early September and just added on Wellbutrin (also taken before) yesterday. I'm stressed about fulfilling unemployment, packing to move, but most of all, getting out of bed.

Lexapro (antidepressant suggestions??)
Hey does anyone have experience with detoxing off
Lexapro
? I've been off for about two weeks and really thinking about changing my antidepressant but don't know where to start.
Lexapro
worked well for me in the beginning but I feel like my anxiety and depression are worse right now.

Anxiety
I take 10mg of
Lexapro
and this anxiety is terrible. My doctor want increase the dosage, because he said I am on too many medications as it is.

Off traz, still dizzy
Also, wants to change me from
Lexapro
to prozac (fluoxitine). Has anyone ever switched meds like that before?? I'm afraid to do it... Might make things worse. Tho, the prospect of them maybe getting better is tempting.
