lexapro 30mg just not working! plz help!

Well healingwell family, I was hoping by now ,I could come back and post some awesome news about my situation, but unfortunately I've been declining again. I've been on lexapro for more than 3 months now and my dose is 30mg, which is quite high. I've had good days but they don't seem to last long and I'm right back where I started. I was feeling more confident a couple weeks ago and then the anxiety and depression have come back again. My moods are literally all over the place! I started to freak out that maybe I am bi polar, but I don't get the highs. Anyway, I'm on vacation where normally I would be in utter bliss and instead I'm finding myself fighting to enjoy the day. I dont understand why I would feel good for 10 days or so and then this again. I'm so fed up and terrified that I'm not treatable anymore. I've had success with celexa for many years but it pooped out last summer and it's been a struggle since. I did try Zoloft which didn't work and then effexor, which was helping but stupid me decided to try lexapro, in hopes that I would have the same response as celexa. I've given this med 3 months and maxed it out and I just don't know where to go from here? Please tell me there's hope. I'm losing confidence in meds!!! Much appreciation, Lisa

Thank you. I hate that I've invested this much time on this. I was really hoping this would work out. Are you on prozac now? Is it working? I don't know if I should try paxil or prozac or just do effexor again? I'm scared nothing will be effective.

Hey Brenda boo, I increased to 30mg over 6 weeks ago, this is why I'm so upset. I hope you don't despair because I know I hate reading about people not responding to a drug I'm on. I know we are all different so 30 may just be perfect for you. Do you suffer from depression too? ?

Yes, coopsmom I suffer from depression and anxiety, I really hate to have to up it to 30mg but like you said we are all different, and of course Scaredy Cat has some wonderful advice!
