KayJ,
I understand what you're going through with the Lexapro, too. I had so many side effects during my first 2-3 weeks of taking Lex.
Honestly, I almost quit taking, too. I thought if the side effects are worse than the initial problem, why bother?
Thank God for the support I got from this board: the people here helped me get through it.
After week 3, my side effects started to diminish and honestly now, I have no se's except for a little nausea in the morning.
But, I remember the insomnia, and that was the worst! For me, it got better.
Others have posted that they take meds to help them sleep. Maybe that could be an option for you, too?
Please hang in there. I almost gave up on it, too, but now am so grateful I didn't. It will get better for you. I know it will.
