In reply to Lexapro and depression, posted by BarbaraS on March 16, 2003, at 12:47:39
> Hello,

> I'm new to this site and wondered if anyone can give me some input. I'm been on lexapro about three weeks (5 mg because I'm sensitive to meds) and just upped it 10 mg the last few days. The anxiety has lessened but I feel more depressed. Has anyone else had that effect? I'm not sure if it's just me because I am still fighting the idea of having to take meds, or if I should try something else. Thanks for your help.Keep trying Barbara. Alot of these meds take awhile (3-6-8 weeks) to kick in. If it is the med for you, you will know and the results, when they are good are worth it. It is ok to resist meds but it can also waste time and allow you to sink deeper so be judicious,OK? Be patient, with yourself and the meds. Best Wishes.
