After only one week on any SSRI you really should not be really having any major WD symptoms,really.is it possible you have something else going on here at the same time?at what point(how many actual days were you on it)did you have that suicidal thought?have you ever had these types of thoughts before starting the lexapro?do you actually suffer from depression or a mixed type of disorder involving depression?Just need a bit more info.thanksFB

I Also Talked To A Pharmisist And She Said That Yes You Can Have Withdraw Symtoms Even After A Week, And I Nor The Doctors Knew What Was Wrong With Me Until I Got On A Lexapro Website And There Was Everything That I Have Been Going Through.
