> Hello again, I'm in the middle of a sh*tstorm of sideffects (nausea,wicked headache,dizziness,crying uncontrollably,no appetite, and worst of all suicidal thoughts) my pdoc says, "wait it out, it should pass". I get the feeling he doesn't care, or take me seriously. Time to shop for a new pdoc, he's my 4th. Thanks for letting me vent, Happy Memorial Day Weekend To All...
Please deffinitely talk to us, talk to family, talk to someone, to help you through this. Banish those "other thoughts" and think of good things.....we don't want anything to happen to you.
As for your side effects...BEEN THERE!!! I had a pretty bad time of it with just about every SE that's listed for Lexapro, and the first 3 weeks were HELL!!! But I managed to get through it with a lot of help from people here. It took 9 weeks before I felt "better" (meaning I could tell Lex was finally working). And it has made such a difference, as you can probably tell from my posts to lil' jimi in particular. So I kind of agree w/pdoc that you should give it some more time.
We are all here for you and willing to listen and help in any way we can.
