hey all,
anyone have any success stories on lexapro? i just started three days ago, any feedback would really help. it makes me feel either wiped out or wired. does it get better? i am using it for my GAD.
thanks,
alli

I'm on Lexapro and I love it! It has really made a huge improvement in my anxiety. Meds tend to affect me rather quickly, and I was feeling better within a week (but I know I still haven't reached my full effect yet). I am tired more than I used to be, and it may be the meds, but it's okay. I'd rather feel tired than panicky!

hey!
thanks for the feedback. did you have any side effects when you started that first week? how long have you been on it? also do you drink on lexapro at all? sorry for all the questions but i would love to know more. it is so great to hear encouragement and see that people do get their life back.
lots of luck
