As I've read here, we're all different. Some people are jazzed up by Lexapro. I get sleepy and feel funny even after 6 months. I switched from celexa at the recommendation of my doc. I now take 20 mg lexapro at night, just as I did with celexa. I'm more likely to take it consistently that way too.
During the day I'm on wellburtrin for ADD, but feel like that pooped out.
Good luck.

> Hi to all. Sorry I haven't been back on here. This is my 6th day of the increase from 10mg to 20mg. Somebody please wake me up! And where is the motivation? I am managing to get the kids to school, supper fixed, dishes done,laundry also. But the rest of the house?
> Also, I have a volunteer job where I just have to go sit with a 15 yr old teenager and make sure he does his homeschooling on his computer. Everyday day but Tuesday and the weekend from 9am till 11am. (He's a smart kid, just got in trouble at school. Me? My brain won't let me even try to understand the algebra LOL, so all I have to do is make sure he does his work. )
> But today, I was so tired, I couldn't wait to get home. I crawled right into bed, and was out like a light. Slept for 3 hours. I see my psychologist tomorrow, and my med doc next week.
> I know this will all wear off, but the 10mg never made me this tired or less motivated.
> I've been reading all the posts though, and they sure are very relaxing and make me think alot.
> Good luck to you all!!
