I have been on Lexapro for almost 3 months now (for OCD and mild depression), and, while I feel it's helped me become more spontaneous and relaxed about things in general, I feel that at the same time I am turning into a COMPLETE ZOMBIE (comparable to my old Paxil days)! Some days I cannot get out of bed for anything! I have no motivation to get anything done, especially when it comes to housework and other mundane tasks. I feel like such a slacker, I just can't seem to get my act together, and I think it's driving my hubby crazy! I have a 2-year-old daughter and feel like a terrible Mom these days! I just don't seem to care about anything anymore - plus I want to eat more and crave alcohol more, which I think is affecting my weight and making me feel even worse! I'm thinking of switching back to Prozac, but that didn't help so much with my anxiety. It doesn't seem to matter what time of the day/evening I take the Lex - I'm still a zombie! Not sure what I should do - help!
