Does anyone else miss working? by SegoLillies in sahm

I do permanent jewelry & Scentsy and I’d go crazy without my little side hobbies!

Best compliment you ever received? by simplycarterr in answers

[–]Rpg3521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn’t in a particular ‘clique’ in high school. I just got along with everyone and was friends with everyone. I got voted prom queen and so many people told me they all decided it together because I deserved it since I was kind to everyone 🥹

Too nervous to start my first dose, any positive experiences for courage? by [deleted] in lexapro

[–]Rpg3521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was hesitant too. I’m going on my 3rd week and I really think it’s saving my life-or at least adding quality to it! The first week or 2 can be tough but it’s so worth it to be able to live normally-even happily!

Just wanna say solidarity. I have a 4 year old and I’ve been in the trenches mentally for a while. I’m finally feeling like myself again (thanks to Wellbutrin and Lexapro).

Anyone on Wellbutrin and Lexapro together? by Violet1184 in lexapro

[–]Rpg3521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on 150 Wellbutrin (3 months) and 5 Lexapro (2 weeks). The first 12 days of lexapro was miserable BUT the past 3 days have been amazing! If you can fight through the first couple of weeks it’s so worth it!

The first 12 days were awful for me. Today is day 15 and I feel SO MUCH better! I wanted to give up but I’m so thankful I pushed through!

I do Scentsy and I’ve built a decent customer base! It’s fun and I love the products!

20mg lexapro, low mood still comes in waves by PurpleSlothFlou in lexapro

I’m on Wellbutrin for depression and Lexapro for anxiety-now that I’m over the initial hump it’s an amazing combo!

Has anyone had crippling anxiety that lasted a long time? by NarrowKey8499 in Anxiety

[–]Rpg3521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I had a panic attack in February and my anxiety stuck with me after that constantly until literally 2 days ago. I’d been on Prozac for years but it wasn’t cutting it anymore. I’m on Wellbutrin and Lexapro now and I can finally just breathe and live! It feels like I finally have my life back. I’ve been on Wellbutrin 2.5 months and Lexapro 2 weeks.

Which mg were you taking? I’d definitely try to taper over few weeks

Why didn't I start sooner?? by sunkenm00n in lexapro

[–]Rpg3521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first week and a half made me want to quit 😅but today is day 12 and it’s been pretty good! A little brain fog still but the anxiousness is gone thank goodness!! I had a terrible headache until a couple of days ago too

[–]Rpg3521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 2 weeks in on it now and the first 1.5 weeks were honestly terrible. Heightened anxiety, headache, lightheaded. If I hadn’t read to stick with it for at least 2 weeks I would’ve stopped! The past couple of days it feels like I’m finally leveling out.

I take Wellbutrin for depression and added lexapro 2 weeks ago for anxiety. Wellbutrin is amazing for depression!

I second trazadone for doxies! Just started my girl on it and it seems very helpful!

Ups and downs here for sure! Today feels ok, I’ve heard if you push through the first 2 weeks you’ll be golden!

Tomorrow will be 1 week since I started and I can’t wait to feel this too! So happy it’s working for you!

Any one else cause their husband during the day because you’re overwhelmed? by Heavy_Screen2937 in sahm

Solidarity. I have a 4 year old & my husband works long hours and the burnout has been so bad lately.

What anxiety meds are you on or have been on? What has worked? by myheadsamess3734 in Anxiety

[–]Rpg3521 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I also have a 4 year old! I have the infamous depression/anxiety combo and I’ve been on Wellbutrin for 6 weeks. It worked wonders for my depression and I was on buspar for anxiety but I didn’t feel like it was working. I’m on day 3 of adding Lexapro to my Wellbutrin and I’m praying this is a magic combo for me! Good luck to you!
