Taking Lexapro is like someone pushed the NORMAL button for me! I was on Wellbutrin, a small dose of Lithium and Topamax and still was riddled with anxiety and crying all the time, as well as a sense of hopelessness. Two weeks on Lexapro and it all stopped. I have gained 10 pounds though. I'm sure that's directly related to my increase in appetite, and I suppose that's a side effect of the drug. But I'd rather be fat and happy than the way I was before. I have developed myoclonis which is that jerking of the body one often gets when falling asleep, although mine is more pronounced. It could be exacerbated from another medical problem I have that has to do with my central nervous system. I was taking my higher dose of Lexapro at night and my doc just had me reverse it. We'll see if it helps. I say it's a wonder drug. I remember taking Celexa years ago and went back to Prozac because it didn't work very well for me. ~~ MercyMe
