I was on Celexa before, which is Lexapro's predecessor.
I was sleepy for the 1st month or two on it, and after finally complaining about it to my p-doc, he gave me a funny look and said "have you tried taking it at night?"
To which I naturally say, "ooo--hh... good idea!"
It works, trust me. Switch to PM dosing if you haven't. Sleepiness went away for me, but the therapeutic benefit happens in your sleep, it's great.
After trying that, you should probably call your doc to ask for advice on what to do. He'll likely prescribe some Provigil, and then if that fails trying around with the dosing to Adderall should work.
