Getting OFF Lexapro

Posted by Greenhornet on February 17, 2005, at 18:14:32 [reposted on February 17, 2005, at 19:14:53 | original URL]

It has been quite sometime since I posted here. As of now I am off all medications except Lexapro and Wellbutrin and Whooh, -- I just cant seem to taper the Lexapro down slowly enough! If I go below 5mgm 3x a week I get the worst anxiety/akesthesia/jump-out-of-my-skin reaction! It is about the worst thing I can ever remember. I am using the liquid (which costs a fortune) and trying to go down 1cc (which equals one mgm) but the night after I do that, it's jitter-city again. I have heard that getting on a short-half life SSRI such as Prozac can be helpful and I have also heard if using Klonapin. But I have a problem there as I cannot take Prozac and Wellbutrin together (screwy liver enzymes) and around here the docs seem to be terrified of ANY bonzodiazapine addict, addict if you ask for it!
PLEASE HELP ----- any input greatly appreciated.
