In reply to Lexapro making me stupid?, posted by Nikita on September 11, 2003, at 9:24:10
I had that problem also (I take 20mg Lexapro) but it lessened over time. With me it was a little different. I feel less foggy than before meds. But with the same short term memory problem that you are describing. So I feel clear headed with a memory problem (if that makes any sense). I cope pretty good. I just have to do a little more work trying to remember. And I do concentrate better with Lex than I did before meds. (Lots of seeming contradictions)
> Is this possible? Lexapro has done wonders for my depression, but I have the same foggy feeling as I did when I was taking Topomax. Problems with the same kinds of things like word recall, forgetting something just moments after thinking or saying it, having to read things a few times before understanding it, etc.
