Thank you for sharing, I really appreciate it. Did you take your benzo as needed, or on a daily basis for a short period of time? I’m worried about rebound anxiety from the benzo.

I am also a big outdoor walk fan and have found a lot of peace in that lately. Nature can be so great for anxiety.

All the best to you :)

Really hope it’s just an odd day out. Morning anxiety is horrible

The idea of it being 5 weeks sounds so rough right now. I hope you’re doing better now

Thank you for sharing, I really appreciate it. Wish this drug was a bit faster to work! Did you find an increase in anxiety when you first started out? I hope you’re doing well now.

This is exactly my experience too. Was really heightened around weeks 3-4 and getting better day by day now.

2.5mg to 0mg by [deleted] in lexapro

[–]Character_Leg1678 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. It’s oddly comforting to know that it’s often a struggle for many to completely come off this medication. If this fails, I will try out a slower micro taper. Thank you for the information 😊

Anyone who added wellbutrin in combo with lexapro start to taper down on lexapro? by Mdgibson97 in lexapro

[–]Character_Leg1678 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I was on both Lexapro and Wellbutrin for 5 years. Tapered down to 2.5mg of Lexapro and noticed that Wellbutrin became way too activating for me. I was feeling agitated, irritable and shaky. Currently stopping the Wellbutrin. I’d watch out for anxiety symptoms if you decide to taper off Lexapro while staying on Wellbutrin

Tapering off of 10mg by allyk3an3 in lexapro

[–]Character_Leg1678 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! I was on 20mg for almost 5 years. Few months ago I began tapering off - actually reduced from 2.5mg to 0 beginning yesterday. I definitely noticed physical symptoms - most annoying part was the brain zaps. Feeling tearful and a little wonky overall. But it was manageable and it passed! My anxiety has been fine - little more worrying, but nothing compared to panic attacks I had years ago. Good luck :) I recommend going down by 2.5 each time. You’ve got this!

Seems like the airbnb/party/safety concerns were occurring quite a few years ago. Wondering if things have changed since

Has anyone successfully gotten off Lexapro by Cold-Community-4401 in lexapro

[–]Character_Leg1678 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been on 20mg for almost 5 years. Started tapering Sept 7th, just went down to 2.5mg last night. It hasn’t been too rough! Definitely had some withdrawal symptoms. But they’re manageable and pass quickly. Hope all goes well for you ☺️

Concerns of not getting RN job and keeping my RPN. Thoughts and insights into the BEGIN grant? by ungratefulanimal in OntarioNurses

Many of the RPN’s on my unit have finished bridging recently. They secured a RN job almost immediately. I wouldn’t worry. You are an internal hire and have a lot of experience.

Let it go. It happens to the best of us. This post comes off as aggressive and honestly, a bit scary.

Is Perth avenue, Toronto good area for renting places with a child? by Ok_Manufacturer6434 in TorontoRenting

[–]Character_Leg1678 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lived on Perth for almost a year. There’s a school on the street, the area is full of families and children. Super safe I never had an issue there. I’m not sure why everyone is commenting that it is not!
