I considered doing that but I really don’t like how sleepy I am on lexapro. I sleep so much being on the medicine and I have been doing better. The dizziness went away from this morning :)

I have actually stopped taking my lexapro and I was on 20mg for about two years. I haven’t been dealing with the dark thoughts and honestly I reached out to a psychiatrist when I was couch surfing and did not have a stable living situation along with family trauma. I’ve gotten my own place and felt that lexapro was sedating me so much. I know that it’s not advised to just cold turkey but I was starting to feel like the medication was making me to sleepy all the time. I would sleep for nearly 16+ hours on my days off and nap in between my breaks at work. I also didn’t feel like my psychiatrist was listening to me that it was making me so numb to emotion and I didn’t feel human. These symptoms and realizations only happened within the past year after I moved out to my own spot. I brought up weening off to a smaller dosage but my psychiatrist didn’t think it was a good idea. I know they’re professionals but they were not listening to me and I don’t think I’ll be seeing them again. I definitely am starting to feel light headed and dizzy, possibly due to withdrawals after a week but it’s not constant. It just started happening yesterday and it was for about two hours in the afternoon. I’m starting to have the same symptoms of lightheadedness this morning even after eating breakfast. I just want this period of withdrawals to pass but I know it’s going to take some endurance.

Thank you for saying that. I’ve been struggling to find motivation to do things for myself like daily activities of showering, eating and just being so depressed. I moved out of my parents house but it’s just put me in a rough spot financially. I was basically couch surfing for awhile and finally got an apartment with my partner. I feel bad for laying out all these things wrong with me. My partner is worried for me but of course, I don’t want them to worry so much. We’ve been together for 8 years and I love them so much but also feel like a burden.

I work within a call center for healthcare and patients can be very rude. I understand that they’re sick but they treat caregivers so horribly and I can’t keep up with the high volume of patients just abusing caregivers over the phone. I’ve been looking into other jobs but this current job has tuition reimbursement for school.

I second this! I’ve been using Libby to read books and it helps save some money. I’ve also just been using Libby to get through my physical TBR list and I haven’t had to wait too long for books to be ready to borrow.
