Lexapro

Following

I've been on it for about a month. It's helped so much with my anxiety and depression. Haven't had any side effects, except for making my appetite decrease a little. But other than that, it's great.

Yes I took it for like a year and it helped a lot the only negative is that it decreased sex drive and ability to orgasm

I've been on it for several years and it was truly a game changer! However, what Jennie said is absolutely accurate. It is a lady boner killer...

@Destiny I am so glad to hear this!!

@Jennie oh man! I already have low sex drive, so this might be problematic. But for now, not feeling riddled with anxiety and depression has to take priority. Thanks for the feedback!

@Bridgette I’m glad you’ve had some good results, the low sex drive sucks though 😔

My next question…how long did it take to kick in?

I’m scared of any antidepressants at this point I was given Zoloft and I had very negative thoughts but I’ve never tried Lexapro. It makes me excited to hear that you guys all had good experiences. I’m glad you asked this question. I hope it works for you. I’ve just been dealing with my depression anxiety on my own with therapy, but it would’ve been nice to have seen all these positive reviews for .

I didn't like it, I ended up switching g to welbutrin, it made my hairline recede a bit, and it corrected itself after I came off it.

@Brittany I’m glad you’re able to get through with therapy. I am in therapy as well, but I’m still very much on edge, so I’m hoping this will give me the extra support I’m needing. I’m happy to hear all of these good results as well.

@Sarah happy you found something that worked for you. We need our hairlines!! 😂

been on it since 2021 and it’s been pretty great. started on 10 mg and it did make my libido go away but it came back (even had a baby, haha). the first realization when you are able to be calm in situations you would lose your mind over was such a game changer 😭

Following! I was prescribed it a month ago and haven’t taken it yet but I debate daily

@Alexis same here! I’m hoping to get something positive from this feed

@Victoria this is what I’m hoping for. Remaining calm, because my rage is out of this world. 😩

@Alexis I took the first pill today, wish I could fast forward a month to see if it helps.

I just started this week. It made such a huge difference in my reactivity to things at work that I regret not going on it sooner

@Maria I feel like I let myself go on this way for far too long. I don’t even know if it’s going to work for me, and I already regret not trying something sooner. I’m happy it’s working for you!

@TeTe will you keep us posted with how it goes and how you’re feeling?

I just started it and it has helped ten fold. I was struggling so much and feel as if my mind is much clearer snd I’m happy. Take care 💕

Lexapro was a huge improvement for me from Zoloft! I was on it until I had my first hypomanic episode and then had to switch to Wellbutrin.

I LOVE lexapro. i unfortunately didn’t do good on zoloft and have been on lexapro for years now. 1 week after starting it, my energy levels were so much higher, I started craving experiences, working harder, became happier
