In reply to How does Lexapro affect sleep, posted by shoff on May 10, 2003, at 2:08:17
> I started Lexapro a few days ago (no real effect yet) and my sleep patterns seems to be terrible since. Is this a common side effect?
I am a morning person and I can't get up in the mornings because it has affected my sleeping so much. I think that because one of the SE's is intense dreaming that I am probably restless all night. I wake up feeling as though I just literally experienced the dream. The dreams are just incredibly realistic and vivid. The dreams are getting more and more intense and frequent so I take xanax before bed to help get some rest.
