New meds lexipro

Hi CG and welcome!

It is a different experience for each individual...but I believe I have read more reports of Lex being stimulating than fatigue inducing.

So perhaps try it in the a.m. first and just see how that goes?

Wishing you the best on your start up. Be sure and check k out our Resources at the top of the main forum page here for great self help material. It can really help through the transition.:)

Post anytime for anxiety support!

I began the lexapro journey last Wed night and have been taking it at bedtime; however I have had terrible sleeps and nausea day and night so I am going to start taking it in the mornings starting tomorrow.

I took Mirtazepine 15mg for 3 years which was great for sleeping but no help for anxiety during the day.

My anxiety and panic attacks have been getting progressively worse since 2013 and in spite of trying all things alternative and natural, I have decided to give lexapro a go.

While the side effects are pretty bad at the moment, I am going to stick them out for the relief from severe anxiety and panic attacks that I have read a lot about

Hi

Lexapro is a very stimulating antidepressant so it is best to take it first thing in the morning I hope it works well for you.
