I am on day three of Lexapro. I am very sensitive to meds and started at a 2.5 mg. dose. Was very jittery and anxious for the first two days. I felt a little less jittery today so I took another 2.5 mg. I'm jumpin out of my skin! I hate this stuff. I can't wait until 9:00 when I can take my lorazapam and go to bed.
I feel so terrible, my kids want me to play video games with them but I can't. My nerves are too raw (I'm a 45 year old father of 3). How long does this last?
My pdoc just gave me a prescription for perphenazine to ease the anxiety. I guess it's an antipsychotic but in a 4mg. dose it helps with anxiety. Have any of you tried it?
