hi mph-speedy,

you posted:

On the Lexapro have started feeling like my old happy self and recognize that the behavior I was attibuting to others either didn't exist (on their part) or was in reaction to my own disfunction. Where do I go from here is - am I to stay on ADs forever, or should I just go with the flow and not worry about it for now?

.. ... .. again, it is wonderful to read here about folks getting good relief from lexapro ... ... love your "Benefits out-weigh the SEs" attitude .... .... great to hear it is working for you!

... ... and i hear you about the where do you go now ... ... like, do i take this from now on? ... ...

(i have read that the average time of ssri use is 11 months ... ... more recently i read it is 3 years ...)

for my part, these are non-issues for me ... (unless "poop out" occurs) .... .... since it is working for us now, i recommend enjoying the new perspective ... and learning about ourselves,
("Hey, is this what it's like to not be depressed?") ... ... and accepting that we may need help from meds ... for however long ...

... diabetics need meds ... ... epileptics need meds ... and our depression(s) may be biochemical or neurochemical dysfunctions for which we may need meds ... ... Especially, if they can make life worth living ... ... hang in there ... and try to let us know how you are doing, Please ...

TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOURSELF!!

i'm thinking that the folks with the dizziness SE may also benefit from more water too ... ... for me, lexapro really demands a LOT of good liquids (less soft drinks) for it to realize its maximum benefits ... ... LOTS of water ... and of course a good diet (lots of fruit and vegetables!) and outdoor exercise with that *SUNSHINE* you recommended before ... ...

thanks for your welcome back ... good to be back and great to hear you there, ol' pal!

Of course, I can't speak for others but for me Paxil took away the spark. I was considerably less depressed but I was also flat as a pancake. No up and no downs make for a dull boy. Lex seems to let me be me but skip the lion's share of my depression.

Hi,

From my experience....Lexapro gave me a tremendous headache for the first 10 days (in fact all SSRI's I've tried do). I also could not sleep at night. I took a Klonopin to offset that problem.

I'm on Lex now 4 weeks. I just increased my dosage from 5 mg to 7.5 mg. I have an awful headache today just from that mild increase. I know if will go away though. I sleep fine at night without any Klonopin. Just noticed though that I'm getting an increased appetite which I'm not liking at the moment.

Hang in there. I'm sure the headache and dizziness will go away in a few more days!

When I first started Lexapro, my Dr started me on 10 mg of Lex from 30mg of Paxil. Straight switch from one to the other the next day. I thought that he gave me a placebo at first because I had no noticable side effects other than my depression seemed to be getting much worse. I did go through a stage of severe tingling skin a few weeks into the treatment. Now after a couple of months on Lex I think that I feel a little better (for the last few days.)

Patience is the word. If you experience Lex as I did you'll see the light at the end of the tunnel one day soon. And it won't be an onrushing train for a change. You'll hug you and I'm certain that seven year old granddaughter will be close behind. Hang in and take care.

Hey all --

I have been feeling tremendously thirsty since starting the lex a little less than a week ago; did this go away for anyone?

This is the reverse for me of when I got off Zoloft; then I was thirsty. Hope it's not a bad sign; the zoloft helped my migraines and that's what I need the lex for.

hey books ~

i don't know how much the THRIST may have subsided from adapting to lexapro
rather than
my concern about trying to stay hydrated because of my sense the importance of avoiding dehydration ... ....
... ... i have been drinking more water than ever in my life since i have been taking lex and i feel much better and stronger ...

you know, my lex experience has inspired me to drink more water ... ... Have I just been dehydrated my whole life until now?

now i am so conscientious about drinking enough water that it is as if i am on high alert for whenever i feel thristy ... ...

i have had regular headaches from my sinuses due to allergies ... ... these have diminished and i credit the extra water ... and maybe the lexapro?

good luck!!

Lorrie,

I haven't.

Could it be gastrointestinal? My partner had a lot of heart tests done when it turned out to be a gall bladder problem. Also, my coworker had something similar -- was rushed to the ER with 'heart attack' symptoms, numbness down arm, trouble breathing, etc. -- turned out to be gastrointestinal.

A new medication _could_ cause this kind of gastrointestinal reaction. Your liver is processing something new, something it may not like.

Hope you're well soon.

if it were me in your shoes and the family past history i would enjoy the meds if you find one that makes you feel better. chances are if grandma had the meds we have she never would have been institutionalized. see ive been there done that with the post partum depression. my baby i caried 7 + months my only son, born dead. i was always a strong and happy go lucky person i could look death in the eye and carry on( had a death wish i guess) any way after the dead baby i had horrible post partum and the went straight in to post tramatic stress syndrom. raped at age three and beating by mommy dearest after words FOR I BROUGHT IT ON MYSELF DON'T YA KNOW... see at age three i still needed a little guidance in dressing my self. ( got shirts on inside out, backwards,etc... thats when any way that it happened) carried on the rest of life as well. thats enough of that. any way i tried to rough it out and damn near killed me and others because i couldn't funtions. yet i was afraid i was cracked if i took meds. 2 yrs went by and i got progressivly worse. DON'T DO THAT TO YOU AND YOURS. IF YOU CAN FIND A MED THAT MAKES YOU FEEL TEN PERCNT(PREFERABLY BETTER THAT THAT) BETTER YOU OWE IT TO YOURSELF AND YOUR FAMILY TO FELL BETTER AND HELP YOUR SELF. don't tell everyone though because not every one likes meds. they think you are cracked... when in actually they just don't know about meds. its afear they have about the unknown...

> I just got back from being in the hospital all night for what seemed like heart attack symptoms. My heart rate was high, arm and jaw pain, a burning sensation all through my chest and back. After tests all night and a stress test today, they find my heart is fine and are supspecting severe stress or side effects from the lexapro I started on Tuesdsay. Has anyone else expereinced this??
