I started taking Lexapro on Sept 10th for generalized anxiety. So its been about 5 weeks - and my anxiety has DISAPPEARED. In fact, I am so laid back - I don't give a flip about anything. I go to work ONLY because I like having the power ON in my house. Three weeks ago I took pride in my job, now I just work at the level of "getting by". This is coming from a woman who finished college in the spring with a 3.96 GPA. I use to worry about EVERYTHING. So, my next dosage of Lexapro will be cut in half (from 10mgs to 5). I need to care. I want my drive back. This stuff is really STRONG!!! Zoloft worked much better. I cared but didn't allow myself to become strung out with anxiety. But the sexual side effects were unacceptable. I hope cutting the dosage works. I've been sleeping 12 hours a day and I would sleep all 24 if I didn't have to work and eat. I just don't care anymore. Well, there is enough of "me" left to say, "Whoa! This is no way to live!!!" I would rather worry.
