Hi everyone. I started lexapro 11 days ago after a trip to my doctor where he told me I was depressed. I'm not sure that I am as depressed as lots of you seem and I feel kind of silly. My "depression" seems to come and go and looks more like lots of worry and "meltdowns". I finally went to the doctor when I just didn't feel I could get through my day. I do feel like whatever it is has affected my life, my family and my home--no energy. Does this sound like depression to you? I feel kind of silly taking this if I don't need it. This probably sounds ridiculous to you guys, but I have worried about whether we jumped the gun. I think my state of crying and my family history are what the doctor based this decision on. Any thoughts?
