> When I started on lexapro I could barely eat for days and had such loose bowels it was embarrassing. But that went away after a few weeks. Lexapro worked somewhat for me. I wasn't so much severely depressed as anxious and irritable all the time. It stopped that. I stopped lexapro and went back on it and it worked again, this time without the start-up side effects on my appetitite (also my sleep -- I would wake up at 4:00AM raring to go). So hang in. The appetitite thing and bowel problems are generally short-lived and although a lot of people on this list talk about stopping a drug and then it won't work again, that was not my experience.
Thanks so much Emmanuel for the reply! I feel like I am living in a nightmare some days!! I am just hoping for light at the end of the tunnel! LOL!!
