I was prescribed Lexapro because when I was tapering off Effexor, I developed some "strange feelings" (dizziness, and more). My pdoc had me take it for 2 weeks. During the 2 weeks I felt fabulous almost instantly...but when the Lexapro RX ran out my pdoc said just to continue taking my Wellbutrin which I take 2 x's per day.
I must admit,
I was feeling a little dissapointed about not taking Lexapro, but didn't want to sound a like a "Med Lover" to my pdoc so, I never said anything further until about 1 month later.
I had my appointment with my pdoc and told him that there was something about Lexapro that really made me feel GOOD...."awake, alert,mentally energized"....so, he prescribed it to me. I now take Wellbutrin SR 150mg 2x's per day and Lexapro 10mg every day. I'm on day 3 of Lexapro and feel like I'm on speed....I love this feeling.

I am glad you are doing well. I sent an earlier post and it did not appear, so apologize if ultimately this is a duplicate.
I would appreciate some advice. I also began Lexapro 2 days ago ( 11pm dosage), starting with a quarter pill- 2.5mg. I barely slept and woke with a sick, heavy, headache and dizziness that would not abate, despite taking some Aleve late in the afternoon. I cut the dose to 1.2 last night ( took about 7 pm) . I slept, but woke with that same headache, almost like a post concussion headache I once head, where I felt like my head was 10 lbs. heavier on one side and twisted around.
I have a terrible track record with trying SSRI's and am very concerned. I have tried the SSRI's to deal with a depression precipitated by high dose progesterone to treat hyperplasia.
I would welcome any advice or thoughts whether the headaches will abates. The progesterone side effects are barely manageable and I do not think I can deal with the headache on top of it. I don't want the cure to be worse than the problem...if you know what I mean. thanks in advance...

Hi there, glad your feeling good on the lexapro. It does affect some people that way that speed feeling. I used to take speed years and years ago. Are you able to sleep at night? Just be aware in the coming weeks if your still feeling good. Cant argue with feeling good!! Im happy for you!!!!

hi Heidi8,

certainly, you want to check with your doctor about these SEs to see what is suggested ...

although your possible med interactions are completely beyond me (i have only taken lex and all of my SEs went away in less than 2 weeks),

let me ask,
"How much water do you drink a day?"
and
"Can you drink more water? ...
... or that sport drink, electrolyte enhancing drink type stuff ...

i have found i get thirsty since i have been on lex, and learned this is a CLUE (!) that i am dehydrating and should drink more water ... i like mine with a slice of lime, mmmmmmm!

this has helped my headaches ... .. ... i think it's helping my sinuses ... ... which helps my head ...

just a thought ... hope it might help ...

TAKE CARE !@!!

has anyone tried valium instead of anti-depresents for anxiety? i'm looking for an alternative because of the sexual side effect.I've been taking paxil and Zanax for over a month.It seems paxil has taking away my anxiety but also zap other emotions like sense of humor,motivation ect.ect.Is Lexapro that much different than paxil?

Hi there, valium is in a sense kind if like xanax. Some people get by just taking xanax or another benzo. A month on paxil is not very long. A lot of times those side effects go away. I could not handle the paxil or zoloft but have done great on lexapro. You just dont know what might work until its tried. GOOD LUCK!!!

Background is did not even realize it was depression until almost had a "melt down". On the Lexapro have started feeling like my old happy self and recognize that the behavior I was attibuting to others either didn't exist (on their part) or was in reaction to my own disfunction. Where do I go from here is - am I to stay on ADs forever, or should I just go with the flow and not worry about it for now? Family history is - grandmother institutionalized for pychotic behavior after post partum depression. Father alcoholic. Son is bi-polar.

Looking back, I believe I've had bouts of depression before but was untreated.

Hi Jim, glad to see you posting. Since my disorder I have been drinking a lot more water than I ever have. Im also a soda drinker which I have cut back on since this started. But somedays I wake up feeling like crap and realize I have been neglecting the water and also a vitamin I take. This water thing I believe is very important also. TAKE CARE!!!!

Hi there, sorry about your family!!! Must have been hard growing up and it must be hard dealing with your son. But its great that your feeling good. I read about statistics and one shows that someone who quits their meds in the 1st 3 years 2 out of 3 will relapse. With your family history its one heck of a risk if the lexapro continues to work for you. I have no plans whatsoever in quitting my med. Its to much of a risk for me. As long as you dont feel drugged and your on the right dose why risk it. You feel normal right? You just take something to feel that way. Nothing wrong with that!!!! TAKE CARE!!!

hi maxumus,

my wife-sweetie took paxil for a few years about a decade ago ... bad, very bad ... no one ever mentioned side-effects at all to her ... ... now we are still trying to find her libido! .... very hard on us ... especially because we had no idea about paxil SEs ... sad ...

whereas, i have been on lex 4 1/2 months now ...
... zero weight gain ...
... **improved** sexual satisfaction ... (hey, my lil' wifey!) ...

... ... and i am much less depressed ... did have some start-up SEs, but they went away ...

personally, IMHO, i would not even compare lex to paxil ...

and as Wayne says,
TAKE CARE!!!!

.. ... .. again, it is wonderful to read here about folks getting good relief from lexapro ... ... love your "Benefits out-weigh the SEs" attitude .... .... great to hear it is working for you!

(i have read that the average time of ssri use is 11 months ... ... more recently i read it is 3 years ...)

for my part, these are non-issues for me ... (unless "poop out" occurs) .... .... since it is working for us now, i recommend enjoying the new perspective ... and learning about ourselves,
("Hey, is this what it's like to not be depressed?") ... ... and accepting that we may need help from meds ... for however long ...

... diabetics need meds ... ... epileptics need meds ... and our depression(s) may be biochemical or neurochemical dysfunctions for which we may need meds ... ... Especially, if they can make life worth living ... ... hang in there ... and try to let us know how you are doing, Please ...

i'm thinking that the folks with the dizziness SE may also benefit from more water too ... ... for me, lexapro really demands a LOT of good liquids (less soft drinks) for it to realize its maximum benefits ... ...

Of course, I can't speak for others but for me Paxil took away the spark. I was considerably less depressed but I was also flat as a pancake. No up and no downs make for a dull boy. Lex seems to let me be me but skip the lion's share of my depression.

Hi,

From my experience....Lexapro gave me a tremendous headache for the first 10 days (in fact all SSRI's I've tried do). I also could not sleep at night. I took a Klonopin to offset that problem.

I'm on Lex now 4 weeks. I just increased my dosage from 5 mg to 7.5 mg. I have an awful headache today just from that mild increase. I know if will go away though. I sleep fine at night without any Klonopin. Just noticed though that I'm getting an increased appetite which I'm not liking at the moment.

Hang in there. I'm sure the headache and dizziness will go away in a few more days!

When I first started Lexapro, my Dr started me on 10 mg of Lex from 30mg of Paxil. Straight switch from one to the other the next day. I thought that he gave me a placebo at first because I had no noticable side effects other than my depression seemed to be getting much worse. I did go through a stage of severe tingling skin a few weeks into the treatment. Now after a couple of months on Lex I think that I feel a little better (for the last few days.)

and i don't know if it's just the proximity, but the urination-challenge seemed related to the anorgasmia ... ... there was a tingling, kind of not-quite-numb like sensation ... some at the tips of my fingers too ... and the tip of my nose ... the extremeties ...

... makes me more grateful all those SEs went away ... ... but i could see how making love could relieve the tension and how that could help make it easier to pee ...

anyway, i agree with you: it is all interrelated ...

you wrote ( i loved this! ):
"think about it, can you pee when it is standing up saying hello baby??? "

as i have discovered here, it would be said,
LMAO ROTFL !!!
... and i thank you, Very Much !!! ... ... (("Hello, Baby"!!!)) AH HA HA HA HA HAAA HAAA!!!!
AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH HAAAA HAAAA!!!!!
( ... oh, sorry! no disrespect was intended! ... )

so the answer is ... ... no ... no, mam ...

TAKE CARE !!!!

p.s. HAAA! HA!

p.s. i think we should try to drink as much water as possible to help with these SEs ... it's got to help . ... ~ j
