Well, I am five days into being back on Celexa, and I feel already much better.

I worked out exactly how long I withstood the pain of lexapro. My first prescription was on the 29th July. I switched back last friday - so that is approximately 10 weeks of real pain.

Its cost me a week off work and numerous mini panic attacks at work, which I havent had in TWO YEARS!

I estimate that I was on 30mg for 4 weeks, 10mg for 1 week (depression came back quickly on that dose), 15mg for 2 weeks - again depression continued to stay, and 20mg the rest of the time - but 20mg gave me constant panic attacks.

I WILL NEVER TOUCH LEXAPRO AGAIN.

And no-one can say I havent give it a good long chance to work.

I would say that lexapro has caused me more pain than when I started PAXIL, and that was awful.

Thank god for celexa.
