And rereading your last post....you mention anger, spending money, dropping obligations....does it seem like pure depression that he has? or could he have more of a mixed mood picture? If there is any chance he has irritable highs, hypomania, Lexapro could actually worsen that aspect of behavior. That's the thing about these meds, they ARE tricky...
I don't mean to scare you--I am not there to see what is going on, but it is something to consider. When is he scheduled to see the doc again?And what is his attitude been regarding the medication, and seeing a psychiatrist?
