You say that on Wednesday you decided to stop the Lexapro. Did you try and do this gradually? Did you taper of the Lexapro. I know some doctors say that you don't need to, but I have found it always seems to help when coming off an antidepressant.
Did you discuss this with your Dr., stopping the Lexapro?
I'm sure after a little while your "intellect" and "memory" will return to normal.
If you haven't called or seen your Dr. since Wednesday, maybe you need to. Possibly a benzo might help while having these "withdrawals". Just my thoughts.
I hope you get to feeling better, hang in there, even if it is by a "thread", things will get better. I was watching the movie "Blow" earlier with Johnny Depp (true story) and I love the saying his father uses in the movie: "When you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you're going to be up again, but it always ends up working out". I love that movie, I had to go buy the DVD. Other favorites of mine are: Girl Interupted, and A Beautiful Mind. I just had to go out and buy those too.
Take care!!!!!Jodie
