> I have been Lexapro for 19 days. I just came off of effexor. Had been on it for about a year at 175mgs.
> I have no energy, don't care about tomorrow, and the nausea is something I fight everyday. I don't know what to do, and very tired of fighting to find medication. It seems hopeless, and I have tried most evertyhing in the past 12 years. Am I doomed to be one that slips through the crack and cannot find medication. I hate to go back to effexor or tofranil.
> Thanks, Neptune**** The Effexor could be your issue...like Paxil, Effexor tends to mess with your mind and body...long after you have stopped taking it...did you stop cold turkey (thanksgiving joke) or did you titrate down slowly? I have heard of your symptoms from this before...and possibly lasting several weeks...dont go back to effexor, try to ride it out...once your body is ready, then lexapro will do its job..(10 mg right?) good luck
