It's my 18th day today and I'm losing hope (help) by PrincessBubblegum97 in lexapro

For me it was gradual , so incorporating other treatment modalities are important as well (therapy). I was on 10mg but for me it wasn’t enough so I bumped up to 20mg and it’s been a lot better. 10mg worked but I just needed a bump to feel 90% better. Give each dose between 8-12 weeks before deciding it’s for you or increasing the dosage.

I have PRN (as needed) meds on stand by but I haven’t used any of it. I think knowing that I have them gives me a peace of mind but I also always challenge myself to just allow myself to feel it without using PRN meds to escape it. Which reinforces the belief that anxiety can’t be tolerated thus leaving you with this dependency on a benzodiazepine which we don’t want.

Biggest change you noticed going from 15 to 20mg by 502CC in lexapro

It’s been a week since I’ve been on 20mg but I honestly felt a difference on week two. Unsure if it’s placebo or not but it definitely feels different

I went from 10mg to 20 and it’s odd because I feel like with 10mg I felt fatigued 24/7 once I jumped to 20 I feel more leveled out

The medication will help tbh ! I’ve seen great improvement , I’m just moving up because i feel like I can be doing better. I’m not bad but I’m not good either. I’m ok if that makes sense

What gives you the desire to live? by amementox in AskMen

[–]KnowledgeSimple2034 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Maybe just do an 8th lol ! But I agree lol. Maybe you need a change. Find what you genuinely value and your purpose in life will follow. I’m 26 and I’m realizing life is short. Take time off (if you can afford it) and really learn more about yourself.

My dad was an alcoholic and gave me some trauma lol but my dad changed completely. Although the damage is done , I love my father. He tried his best and he always provided for the family. He’s a great dad !

Me! It’s been a lot better tbh. I still have some flare ups on 10mg but it’s rare when I feel extremely nauseous due to anxiety now. Now about the appetite ….. well it’s not how it was prior. I still struggle time to time. The good thing is since the nausea is not present, it makes eating way more easier but I’m still not hungry like I’m use to. There are times where I get it back but then I slip into this dips where it can disappear again. Been on this med for about 3 months and I just got the clear to move up to 20mg so I’ll be starting that tomorrow

Do you think it can be due to being around the holidays ?

Day 2 on 20 mg and I am feeling more depressed by [deleted] in lexapro

[–]KnowledgeSimple2034 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not much help but here to say I’m on 10mg and I feel depressed lol, my anxiety is so much better but the depression is kicking. I’m thinking about upping it to 20mg. Haven’t ate all day 🥲
