New To Depression/Anxiety Please HELP!

Posted by bigpopper on September 25, 2006, at 18:06:19

I am a 36 yr. old male with no depress or anxiety issues before. This started about 2 month ago while I was going through some medical issues that involved Luratab and medrol (steriods). I was on Luratab for 1 month and would take 3-4 day. Then The Dr gave me a 2X of medrol. The day after I quit the Medrol I had a complete breakdown. Horrible anxiety and depression. I could take a Lortab and it would go away. Could not even get out of bed. Thought I was dying. Had Upper/lower GI, CT scan of head and body. No problems. The Dr. said That these medications triggered some slight depression I already Had?? I lost 30 pounds in these 2 months. He put me on 10mg of Lexapro and have been on it for 15 days. I have been having some bad SE's, but had the same SE's the day before I started (the day a broke down). How long before the Lexapro makes me feel better or any opinions. I have also been take 1-1.5 mg of Xanax for anxiety as needed and ambien CR. Any advice appreciated!
