I am now off Lexapro for 3 weeks, and STILL feeling side effects. I took Lexapro for 4 weeks and had a very strange things happen to me. Feelings were: Tired, Feeling VERY dissoriented, almost like lethgarthy ,forgetfulness, blurred vision.For instance I would know in my brain that I wanted to do everyday things like push a button on my remote control or put on makeup, but I couldnt see, and my hands would shake and I couldnt do those things, which led me to be even more depressed than before, I so badly wanted to perform day-to day things, anf couldnt. I cried hysterically, and didnt even want to move,I layed on the couch or in bed until I finally went toteh doctor and told him about these side effects, I stopped takign Lexapro a day before on my own, and the doctor told me to take Zoloft , I didnt because I JUST WANT TO FEEL NORMAL. I feel better, and the feelings arent soo intense, but I STILL feel dissorinted, and dont function like I used to, I have major headaches all day, and all I hope is that is Lexapro, and not something else. Has ANYONE had these things happen??? I feel crazy! And if it is, how long do I ahve to wait until I feel normal?
