Lexapro Update

Posted by Capri on July 18, 2003, at 22:21:07

Still trying to figure out Lexapro. I've been on 5 mg for 3 weeks. My brain feels a little fried. At work I can't concentrate on 1 thing but at the same time my brain is really lazy. Can't remember what I did 5 minutes ago and can't finish a complete thought. Still have some irritability (which was the reason I was put on it). I take it at night and sometimes I can't fall asleep....other nights I can. I feel sometimes hyper so I can't say it would help me avoid a panic attack. Trying to sort this all out.

Wayne, Jim feel free to give me your thoughts on this. Don't know if I should increase it to maybe 7 mg or stay where I am. Will see the doc in a week.

Does that "fried" brain feeling ever go away. I know when I took Paxil 4 years ago I had the same problem. It's like it zaps your brain or something! It I knew I could be free of anxiety and panic I would continue to take it but so far I don't see that happening. My mood is better however.

Thanks for listening.
Capri
