OK, guys...this is me on day 13 of Lexapro (off the zoloft completely now):
1. Am ok waking up, all daytime sleepiness has gone away
2. as the day goes on, I start to feel less "ok" and more cranky, unsettled.
3. by the evening, when I'm dealing with the kids after school/dinner/bed, I'm so cranky I'm almost out of control.
4. by evening, VERY unsettled, one .5 mg of Klonopin isn't helping much anymore, now I'm up to 1 mg, just to stay sane
5. usually end up going to bed to put myself out of my misery.
6. next day starts all over again
7. having occasional mild "zings" which are annoying, but not too unbearable.
8. On an "up" note, I seem to have escaped all of the bad sexual side effects...can still have some kick a** orgasms (by myself) and can still respond to hubby, a little more delayed, though...luckily he's a determined man...anyone got any advice for me? Should I call my pdoc? have I given it the good try or should I give it more time?
any advice greatly appreciated....Mary
