In reply to Pharmrep: A Week On Lexapro..., posted by Alice Anne on October 3, 2002, at 12:38:59
> Hello Pharmrep, I've managed a week now at 10 mgs. Lexapro. I started at 2.5 for a week and then went to 5 for a few days. Most of the side effects (queasiness, muscle tension-- although I'm still a little spacey feeling) are dissipating, but my depression is not. My question for you is when do the anti-depressant, anxiety effects "usually" kick in? Thanks for the info.
Hi Alice, I'm glad you posted. I've been going through the same thing but because of all the hype Lexapro has recieved my Dr doesn't believe I still have symptoms after 2 wks. Within the past week I've called and also went to see him to ask when I'll stop crying. He just tells me to give it time...he'll see me in a month. In the mean time I've slashed up my arms(I'm a cutter) and am in process of losing my job because of poor performance. Please keep me posted as to your recovery. Best wishes!
