> I am on day 8 and i am now taking 5mg of lexapro. I feel spacey and tired and also i have very little appetite. I have been reading all your postings and the links to websites with info on depression and anxiety. I just wanted to say thanks for all of your input. It has helped me to convince myself to stay with this for atleast a few weeks to see if things change. I still have the depression but the anxiety is definately lowered. I am a little leary of going to 10mg because of the tiredness though. Does anyone know if 5 can be a therapeutic dose?
Hi there, you can stay there until your side effects are to your liking and move up another 2.5mg and so forth. Yes, 5mg has helped others. I take 7.5mg and that seems to be my magic dose. Some take as much as 30mg. We are all so different. TAKE CARE!!!
