As they say, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." I'm not saying don't try Lexapro but as you can read from these many threads and from my personal experience on it expect 6-8 weeks of side effects before you MIGHT feel some relief. After being on the standard 10mg dose for 11 weeks I was still experiencing tiredness, slight nausea and neck pains in waves. I'm now 2 days starting Effexor XR just 37.5 mg simply because I haven't tried it yet. Also after being off Lexapro I'm not so tired, no nausea and neck pain is gone, so it was definitly the Lexapro causing it. After thinking back several years ago I tried Celexa and it also gave me slight nausea.
