Sure...for those people in whom it works better. Keep in mind, many patients would simply never switch to lexapro if citalopram were working fine.

I'd love to believe that your pool of friends and family constitutes even a fraction of one percent of the people who have tried both drugs. According to the following meta analysis, "the manufacturer's claims of superiority for escitalopram over citalopram are unwarranted". Unless you are going to perform a larger meta-analysis, I'm going to maintain my opinions.

Trying to pull the old "why are you acting like this?" routine, I see. I think (before asking what is wrong) you first need to clearly establish that there is something wrong, other than your own personal incompatability with my ways.
