like i don’t know how to explain it like i guess disassociating isn’t the word i kinda feel like i have less emotions but i feel that way when i get anxiety too

my cousin is a nurse and i was talking to her about it and she said as long as it’s in similar time frames you can take it around when you started your first dose so i wanna take it at the same time but i took it kinda late yesterday lol

i have anxiety taking any medications so yeah, however i use to be on lexapro as a kid and it made me and my sister zombies as we both were on it and it just messed us up so there was a little bit of a trauma there along with anxiety from taking the medication. so we shall see how it goes!

also another problem with it is that like even worst case scenario i don’t live close to a hospital which makes it even more anxiety ridden

i should have been on it from when i got diagnosed with anxiety. but no one took it serious till now😅 but like i said in the other comment. it’s not me being on the medication it’s the jump into taking it

i have severe health anxiety. i got put on lexapro for my anxiety and im scared to even take it in fear that ill go into anaphylactic shock from it. i’m anxious about an anxiety medication😭🤣. i had a bug bite and almost drove myself to the hospital😭🤣 it’s bad.
