hi esmeralda ...

glad to hear you are doing okay.
keep up the good work.

i too came here some 2 and a half years ago ... maybe it was like April of '03 ... if i went back to that part of the thread i would know for sure ...

for our confused ones, allow me to explain that by "here" we speak specificaly of this lexapro thread in particular.
... this is a special thread because it begins several months before lexapro was introduced to the U.S. ... and every poster became a personal case study in first time lexapro use ... this is the original lexapro thread.

it is a long thread. ... but for anyone who wants to know about lexapro it is worth reading the whole thing ... as i have recommended many times here ... because that is what i did ... for a couple of weeks while i was going through the adaptation phase of my lexapro treatment ... and if you did read the whole long thing, you would meet many people who came here looking for help, advise, support and understanding ... and you would read about people who became friends here ...

i believe that reading the whole thread can not only answer many questions about lexpro, but offers a tapestry of human narratives written in first person accounts ... the sheer drama and humor of it goes beyond anything hollywood offers as diversion ...

i was one of those people ... along with oldhand and mariposa and blkvettes and esmeralda ... i should scan the thread and act like i can remember everybody ... i cannot say lexapro has done much to improve my memory ... ha!

it has been ... 2 years and 10 months, more or less, that i have been taking 10 milligrams of lexapro everyday ...

so, Yes, dear new friends/visitors: the rest of babble carries on just fine and people still post "here" at the pBabble med board everyday ...

but now the lex thread had fallen into disuse ... although some of us still come back ... to try to check on old friends ... and sometimes we are dismayed that this once thriving community has moved on and things seem like a ghost of what we experienced ...

i was once here everyday ...

sometime about a year ago people stopped posting here pretty much.

i needed this place when it was here for me.
i am grateful it was here then.
i don't need it so much now.
but i miss the camaraderie ....

and i miss you esmeralda.
great to hear your voice.

as blkvettes taught me to sign off:
TAKE CARE !!
