Hi EGR,
I was/kind of am on Lexapro 10mg for about two months. I was on Paxil 20mg for 2yrs with little to no s/e. I was worried about the withdrawal from Paxil and decided to get off of it. My psych gave me some Lex to try. I wish she would have informed me that all ssri's have problems with withdrawal, something I now know. She should have also told me that if the Paxil is working fine then I should stick with it. Instead I went through two months of extreme fogginess and confusion. I switched back to the Paxil two days ago and am hoping it will kick in soon. I feel like crap right now, i.e. anxious. Hopefully it will go away. I am still taking 2.5 of Lex until I see my new psych this friday the 27th. I'll let you know what he thinks.
Take care,
Mark
