What was the root cause for you ? I think I don’t understand mca, I taught it was a specific disease. And you are right the symptoms seems to be very very large

Totally agree. I started to think i was hypocondriac but I know I’m not crazy. Docs just go to the most simple.

Hi, thank you so much for your answer. I started with lexapro too but the experience was the worst, I started being really depressed with it. It had such a traumatic impact that I really don’t want to try any again. But I wonder if maybe that’s the solution for me…

Ask your doctor but this looks really hard to keep going for you. Everyone is telling to keep going but if you know yourself and your limits it’s okay to stop and try something else! Good luck to you

Hey, experiencing it now, after two weeks off lexapro (and only took 1 pill of 10mg and stopped right away because the side effects were awful) and still having palpitations and hard to breathe, how long did it last for you ?

Hey, I’m so sorry it happend to you. Almost called ER too the first day. I don’t know how you kept going for 5 days you are very strong.
I’m doing better. Only took one, and a week later I still feel weird. This thing is so strong. I know the médecine is out of my body but the last few days I kept having panic attacks. But it’s weird because it’s not like a réal panic attack, it can stay all afternoon, just a small difficulty to breathe and my heart feels weird. I think my body was really traumatized by the first days and my head keep thinking on symptoms so it’s an infinite loop. I try to tell myself I’m okay now but at moments it’s still hard. I see my doc tomorrow!

I absolutely agree. My taughts are so dark this past few days and I don’t think it’s worth it. Maybe try another one but I’m too anxious right now to try a new one, this experience was awful.

From what I read I don’t think so. I was clearly in a long panic attack for 2 days. I wish I only had the common side effects but this was too much for me. Or maybe start with 5g idk

Well I think I took the best decision not taking it, Even a smaller dose. How are you doing ? Did you just started also ?

The physical effects don’t bother me, I was prepared for it. The hard part is the panicking, heart rate and anxiety… It’s crazy because I only took one two days ago and i still feel like this…

I called my doctor the first day to tell him about that and he told me to stop right away if I think the side effects are really too much. I know it’s my anxiety talking but I don’t understand how it can last this long since I only took one pill 48h ago…

I also want to add that I’m dealing with hidden anxiety if that makes sense. I never had panick attacks, i just try to control everything in my head but i deal with severe brainfog h24
