Jenn:
I just stopped taking Lexapro. I was on it for 8 months at 30-40mg/day. I found it to be effective only in higher doses. In lower doses, it did not seem to do much for me. The 10mg pills made me nauseous for a few days. That went away. I always felt kind of fatigued on Lexpro. However, even when I took it at night, it did not significantly help my sleep. The side-effects for me were minimal, but I guess, overall, so were the benefits. I've heard many others say Lexapro helped them though. I'd give it a try for a month or two and see what happens. Everyone is different.
Much luck,
Chris> my obgyn just started me on lexapro for post partum depression/mood swings. i dont know much about it, but she says that i should have a better experience than i did on effexor xr.
