> K and everyone!
>>> Have you heard of other who have gotten anxious as well? I was calm for the first few weeks and now those old anxious feelings are trying to creep back. Hopefully, its jsut adjusting to being back at school away from friends, fam ect. Yuck... racing thoughts ect. I hope I am not alone, I know day 25 is to early to up my dose and I was hoping to be able to be at 10mg for my lexapro ride. Please let me know ya'lls thoughts! Ya'll are on my mind! Lexy

Hi, Lexy.
With me the anxiousness comes in the form of being over-wired, or hyper, which to me is the same feeling as being anxious.
It's probably a combination of things in your case -- going back to school and being away from friends and family, plus the side effect of Lex.
You're certainly not alone. I've even tried lowering my dose from 5 to 10 mgs, but after today, I'll probably either go back to 10 or maybe try 7 1/2 mgs.You may want to ask your doctor about the anxious feeling, maybe he or she can give you something to help it.
Take care, God Bless, and hang in there. It WILL get better.
