Hi Winterbluez,
Lexapro takes a long time to kick in. You'll feel out of it until your body adjusts to it. (But yes, the side effects DO go away.) I'm on week 6 of 10 mg lex and just beginning to see results. If you're still feeling awful by week 4, I would suggest calling your pdoc to see what other medication options you have.
Combining lex with Welbutrin is supposed to help with the sexual side effects.
