In reply to Re: LEXAPRO has driven me nuts! 2.5mg and IRRITABLE, posted by jboud24 on October 24, 2004, at 19:47:08
You know, Justin, I really do think I had much better luck with Zoloft (than Celexa OR Lexapro) until it *pooped out.* That's why I went on Celexa, but the added (inactive) isomer in Celexa has antihistamine properties, which caused me incredible fatigue, sometimes to the point that I could barely get off the couch.
It's interesting that you suggested Zoloft, because just last week I talked to my pdoc about returning to Zoloft rather than Celexa. I wondered if Zoloft would be effective again after taking a break for a few years.
I finally gave in and took a valium about an hour ago, so I'm feeling a little better. This anxiety/depression/irritability/ combo is tough. Thanks for responding, Justin, & hope to hear from others as well. We can't be the only ones who have this *high* spaced-out feeling several hours post-dosage -- or the irritability I've been experiencing on this drug.
