Hi Lillie,
I agree with what the others have said, it all depends on whether or not taking Lexapro is worth it to you.
It's definately worth exploring alternatives to medication. There are thousands of books on how to combat anxiety, simply go to amazon.com and do a search for books on the subject.
If you want to stop taking Lexapro I would recommend tapering off. This will minimize your withdrawl symptoms. But your doctor or pharmacist can probably recommend the best way for you to discontinue Lexapro.
I don't blame you for not wanting to be on medication for the rest of your life. I hope you find a solution that works for you.
K.
