In reply to hi it's me again...lexapro question, posted by honey74 on August 31, 2003, at 19:55:18
Good to see your post. I had the same thing you talk of here happen when I first started Lex. I cried and cried and cried. And I had been on it for about a week and 1/2, 10mg.
Yes, in the early days of treatment, I couldn't leave the house, I didn't want to, all I wanted to do was SLEEP! It made me very sleepy intil about the 3rd week. It passed.
'This too shall pass' and I hope it does for you:-)
Hang in there and keep posting-you never ramble-don't worry:-)> Well, i'm now on day 10 of my lexapro (10 mg). i'm taking it for depression and anxiety, and i'm kind of teetering between not caring and happy. although i had one night on thursday of deep sadness. so bad that i couldn't leave my house on friday or saturday. has anyone else experienced this? the jaw clenching doesn't seem to be too bad anymore, and no more blood in stool, so that makes me happy...and not care. i skipped my doctor's appt on thursday because she never gives any definitive answers anyway, i'm just going to hold out until my appointment on the 15th with my blood specialist. hmmm...guess i'm just babbling a little, really just wanted to know about the earlier question, anyone else not able to leave the house?
