Lexapro, as all other SSRI's, caused hypomania with me and if I was on an SSRI long enough, it caused rapid cycling (extremely unpleasant). I was diagnosed Bipolar II but I'm convinced the SSRI's caused it. I was 50 when they diagnosed me, and I never had the problem before. Now my pdoc won't prescribe any AD without a mood stabilizer.
You really should talk to your dr about this. Maybe SSRI's are not for you.
