In reply to how long on lexapro for this result? (nm) » mattye, posted by Franz on October 7, 2006, at 23:22:52
The first couple days I was in a state of extreme agitation and panic on 2.5 mg a day in the morning. Then all the sudden on day 3 it kicked in and I was feeling great on 5 mgs. I still get anxious thoughts, but its like they have lost their power to make me panic. I am able to put them in perspective and I don't "catastrophize" them. Interestingly, I was logically able to do this before the medication. It was like I KNEW I was making a mountain out of a molehill. But knowing this didn't stop my brain from making the mountain.
