Guest guest Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 just tired and a little drowsy first couple days; take them at night time to start & good luck! JUST STARTED TAKING LEXAPRO Is it really possible for an anti depressant to get you back on track? I am excited to think I will possibly get the help I need but it is hard to think I am trying to depend on a pill to help. I feel something at this point has to...I feel way alert the first day and today... Like wide awake. I also have chronic fatigue so I am always tired...I am taking 10 ml and my dr said 20 after a week, is that too much? thank you for your advise...

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2009 Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 For me first week was really bad, depression was much worse but anxiety helped somewhat. Now after 5 months I am fine. Still some sleeping problems. I have to take lexapro in the morning or I am not going to sleep well. > > > From: Carol Vail <elvisrocks1@...> > Subject: Re: JUST STARTED TAKING LEXAPRO > Lexapro > Date: Friday, March 27, 2009, 9:22 PM > > > > > > > Hi - I started at 5 for a week then 10. > I am on 20 now and I seriously wish that > wasn't the max dosage...lol. > I have tried several other SSRI's and had > side effects but none with Lexapro. > The first couple days I was " dopey " but > that was the end of any side effects. > Good Luck.
