Best thing to do, probably, is to call your pdoc and tell him/her what you are experiencing. Then let the doctor decide what to do.
Increased anxiety can be a common start-up side effect of SSRIs. After three weeks, it's hard to say whether you are experiencing a start-up side effect or one that will stick around.
Also, I think it's possible that 10 mg of Lexapro (which is the lowest maintenance dose, I think) is not enough to relieve your symptoms. Lots of people are on double or triple your dose.
However, like I said, I think you should call the dr.
