>I am relatively new to lex. I am glad you are doing so well.That's encouraging. How long was it before you began to feel better? How much lex are you taking?
You mentioned other boards that sound like they are also helpful. WHat are they?linnie
I have been on lexapro for a little over a year. I dont post as much as I used to but still read the posts time to time. I post on a lot on other boards though. I am still doing very good. Havent had a panic attack in over a year. Depression is completely gone. I only get minor anxiety every now and then. I think its just normal anxiety that anyone would get. But I am just more aware of it because of what I went through. Not bad for a person who a year ago was suicidal, housebound, afraid to be alone, spent 3 months in the ER, didnt drive for 6 months, couldnt eat, had tremors and was shaking so bad people thought I had a muscle disease. Thats just a small bit of what I went through. I dont take xanax during the day anymore. As far as quitting the lexapro???? Seems kind of stupid to quit something that gave me my life back and gives me zero side effects. So I shall take it till I die!!!!!!!!!! <:-)
