Hi Jane.
> I tried Lexapro and it made my anxiety worse. What would happen if you only took the diazepam? Do you NEED the Lex for depression?
Lexapro often produces anxiety early in treatment. Sometimes it goes away before an antidepressant response becomes evident. I don't know off hand for what percentage of people the anxiety disappears. My experience is that it lessened after three weeks and disappeared completely by week 5. Unfortunately, it's not making my depression any better.
