Week 1---No real effect + or -
Week 2-- Awful,high anxiety, bad insomnia, very nauseous in the morning, loss of appetite
Week 3- Side effects subsided, Sleep back to normal..depression lifting..anxiety lowered..feeling pretty good
Week 4- Backslided slightly, mainly increased feelings of sadness/depression, but no disruption of sleep
Week 5- Much better mood, sadness/depression subsided, anxiety level still high though
Week 6 on--Have pretty much stabilized, depression is much better..anxiety levels still high at times..I think this will improve though with time as depression fades further and further into memory..I take my meds in the morning...have never tried taking them at night
>Hi People(it's me again)
> Can anyone kinda' give me a week-by-week "up-front-and-personal" idea of the way Lexapro has encouraged them to STICK WITH IT! How did it make you feel during week 1, week 2, week 3, etc. What time do you take your meds? I feel sluggish in the morning...thanks again!!!
