Hi Mandy - Hang in there . . . it does get better! The first 2 weeks were hard. I started feeling really good and s/e free by week 5 or 6. I've been on 10 mg of Lex since late October. I was nauseous, had some abdominal problems, felt jittery, couldn't sleep, yet was so tired, etc.! About 10 days ago I upped the dosage to 20 mg. and had a repeat of some of the s/e's, but not bad.
Don't give up. This is a wonderful drug that has alleviated symptoms of anxiety and depression for so many posting to this Board!! Let us know how you're doing!
