In reply to Lexapro side effects ?, posted by Neatfreak on December 26, 2003, at 8:46:21
I have been on lex 20mg for about 3 weeks now. I am SOOO sleepy I find myself very demotivated. I was previously on Lex 10mg but doc felt this dose was not treating my anxiety. I was on EffXR previously and HATED the sleepiness from that drug. The w/d was even worse. After finally getting off of Eff XR I went w/o any antprssts for about 2 months and found myself more and more "antisocial" wanting to hibernate alone with my 2 golden retrievers and talk to no one. Friends were concerned and I finally went for help to a psych who started me on lex. I am ready to stop again b/c I cannot stand the lethargy. I used to go to the gym 5x a week which I feel helped my dep/anx also but don't even feel like doing that. Any words of hope?
