> Hi. Just wanted to say that I read alot of what all of you wrote about Lexapro and am so glad..just started taking Lex. 1 1/2 wks ago. !0 mg. and have been taking up to 200 mg. Zoloft for 10 yrs. for severe PMS (no joke) and OCD with anxiety. Dr. is slowly been taking me off Zoloft and I literally have felt like I have been losing my mind,doing things that I normally don't do. Like being depressed and feeling very sorry for myself,Extremely agitated,not sleeping,but feeling tired constantly,like bone aching tired. I am so glad I read your stories because no one has gone over any of theses side affects...was only told..slight nausea,mild diarrhea,maybe a headache...very mild symptoms. I am so glad I found this because I was really worrying that there was something wrong with me. Any imput or suggestions would be greatly appreciated
I found this site while looking up Lex side effects. Dr. didn't really tell me about them when he pscd them either. I thought I might be allergic or having a bad reaction, but found out here that many experienced similar se's. Mine were pretty much gone or going away at week 3. I called in sick to work all of 2nd wk and laid on couch/bed in misery. I hung in there with encouragement from the great people here and I'm doing a lot better now.
We're all pulling for you!~~~8|8
