Lexapro not working as well as it did. Suggestions

Posted by h on May 20, 2005, at 12:57:39

Hi there.
Maybe my life is overwhelming me more. Maybe it's poop-out. I started very slowly on Lexapro and built up first to 10 mgs, then a few months later I went up to 20. I did well on it for a long time. I particularly enjoyed the beginning days when I felt "better than well" However it was great not to have the standard Sunday night depression and Monday morning anxiety. Those are both back now.
I think in a year's time I have begun the dreaded "poop out" I am hesitant to simply up the dosage to 30 or 40. What else is out there that works? Is there anything newer than the Lexapro? I have tried paxil, effexor, wellbutrin, and zoloft and either had absolutely no effect, or severe nausea.
I am your basic functioning neurotic.. Any thoughts?
I have added on folic acid, and fish oil but I think it may be time to deal with the poopout factor.
