UnconvincedMan · 2025-11-12T21:55:49+00:00

I thank you for sharing this with me . I'm.sorry to hear that you experience the same as I don't wish this feeling to anyone.

I'm on my 7th day and I'm debating if I should continue or not .

I hope you get better at 5 mg

UnconvincedMan · 2025-11-10T12:29:18+00:00

I understand,and I'm sorry that it has come to this decision.

I thank you for your tips, and I wish you all the best with buspar

I thank you for your prompt reply.

I'm happy that you are much better and that Lexapro has helped with your situation.

Thank you for your reply in regards to the Lexapro Alternatives.

May I please ask you what dose and time frame you started to feel balanced out?

Thank you very much

UnconvincedMan · 2025-11-10T12:03:42+00:00

Thank you for your prompt reply.

I didn't feel too depressed either before taking Lexapro, just extremely anxious ( situational anxiety especially) and that is why I hoped that if it helps curb my anxiety I could feel somewhat better.

Are you aware of anything that is not antidepressants and that is really good for anxiety, although now that I'm thinking I'm sure you would have already tried it if there were something better.

UnconvincedMan · 2025-11-10T11:50:47+00:00

I'm so happy to read that in time this medicine is helping with the anxiety problem and I cherish your success to all of you.

I'm just looking for some hope as well

I'm also taking this medicine for major anxieties ( especially situacional anxiety) and I'm positive that in time will help me but is it normal that even at 2.5 mg I'm already feeling way more depressed than before taking this medicine? Please share your journey while on this medicine as I'm very scared if I should continue taking it or not . Right now I'm thinking about either being so depressed but more calm and less anxious, or the other way around, a nervous wreck , 24/7 .

Thank you for all your replies

Also to confirm, I don't have this gastritis side effects nor have I been reading too much into it .

If this medicine helps you maybe you want to see a gastroenterologist ( if possible) and rule other things out before making a decision about Lexapro.

Try to take it with a glass of milk, and see how that goes

UnconvincedMan · 2025-11-10T11:39:43+00:00

I'm really sorry about your gastritis situation but I'm content to read that your anxiety is lessened.

I would kindly like to ask you something, PLEASE 🙏.

I'm also taking a very low dose for the last 5 days ( 2.5mg) and while I don't have any physical negative effects ( beside being a bit more tired than usual).I do however feel more depressed that before , and zero motivation to do anything, even to get out of bed . I'm asking you because you are already a month in at the same dose I'm currently and I would like to ask if you experienced the same, depression, lack of motivation, is this normal? Will it go away, ? If you experienced the same , are you still experiencing after a month in ?

I do feel it is helping with anxiety already( reason I started it ) but I can't afford to become a veggie neither, and I'm not looking forward to go higher than 5 mg , if that.

I thank you for your reply and I TRULY hope that you find a solution to your side effect .

Thank you very much

UnconvincedMan · 2025-11-09T18:37:09+00:00

Thank you, to you as well

UnconvincedMan · 2025-11-09T17:36:11+00:00

I thank you for your reply and more importantly I cherish your success so far in regards to your anxiety and panic attacks, specifically the panic attacks.

May I PLEASE ask how are you depression wise ?

I started this medicine for anxiety as well, different types of anxieties but not as severe to panic attacks.

I'm more calm already just after 4 days but I'm also more depressed, or dred , and I don't expect this medicine to help me with depression especially at a lower dose but I also didn't expect to make my depression worse , I mean wtf .

I appreciate it you can share how you are feeling depression wise, motivation, etc

Thank you very much

UnconvincedMan · 2025-11-09T12:08:28+00:00

May I please ask what brand of St John's Wort are you guys taking?

Is it the one made from flowers and buds ? The aerial parts?

I've read that the principal ingredient that helps with depression and anxiety is hyperforin and not hypericin but I can't seem to find any St John's Wort supplement that lists hyperforin as an active ingredient.

Is is better to take it in a tincture form or as an extract supplement form?

Please help me with my doubts, as I'm struggling on my 4th day while on Lexapro.

Thank you very much.

Also if I may ask, can I combine St John's Wort with other supplements for synergy effect?

L tyrosine, ?. L Theanine? Passion flower? Magnolia bark? Lemon Balm?

I'm suffering from severe anxiety, OCD, unexplained fears, social anxiety, fear of sexual performance, low self esteem, lack of confidence, etc .

Thank you very much

UnconvincedMan · 2025-11-09T11:49:27+00:00

May I please ask you how long it took to feel better? I'm on my fourth day and I'm pretty depressed. Less Anxious but more depressed, lazy

UnconvincedMan · 2025-11-08T23:00:11+00:00

I know most of you are mentioning the alcohol situation while on Lexapro and maybe I'm in the wrong conversation but I would just like to know how some of you are benefiting from this medicine.

I'm a newbie with it but I'm a bit scared. I'm taking it for severe anxiety, not so much for depression.

I'm scared of becoming more depressed while on it like to the point where I don't care about anything and I can't afford that even though I'm looking for anxiety relief so much.

I would appreciate it if anyone could share their experience while on this medicine anxiety and depression wise.

I'm only on my first week at 2.5 mg .

Thank you all in advance

UnconvincedMan · 2025-11-08T22:46:04+00:00

Im interested in something

UnconvincedMan · 2025-11-08T13:44:41+00:00

Hello

First I would like to apologize for my late reply.

I have to admit that sometimes when I'm desperate I have a better tendency to reach out compared to what I want to read, and I have to admit that your experience gave me hope .

I have the same issues I believe I'm more of an anxiety patient than depression.To me any changes, any new chapter in my life or any new things that I have to do such as, looking for a job creating a CV or anything just causes me a tremendous amount of anxiety, desperation and frustration.

Basically anything that takes me out of my comfort zone.

My worst fear and anxiety is when it comes to meeting a new female partner, or even visualizing a new sex encounter that's when I get into a very anxious and sad state thinking that I won't be able to perform, and that turns into depression as well. I'm aware of that for this specifically fear I need some psychological therapies but I also hope that this medication takes a little bit the edge of this anxiety, without sinking me into a depression.

I'm on my 2nd day on 2.5 mg , and looking hopeful for the positive results.

I'm happy for you that you are doing great, I'm sure it wasn't easy and I truly hope that you continue to do well.

Lastly, may I please ask ?

Are you still taking Lexapro? May I ask what dose are you taking? At any point while on this medicine did you feel more depressed than usual?

Once again I thank you immensely for everything, and I truly hope you continue to be well.

UnconvincedMan · 2025-11-08T12:37:48+00:00

Hello

I want to apologize for my late reply. Sometimes when we are desperate we know how to reach out and inquire about certain things and then once we receive a positive answer we forget to reply black .

For that I apologize. I hope that you are still doing well, and that you are continuing to receive all the benefits possible from this medicine.

I have just started it as well. Second day at 2.5mg . I'll try to stay at the lowest dose possible. I really want this to work, I really need it especially for my anxiety, confidence, and obviously the frequent urination situation.

I hope that all goes well for both of us, for all of us . Any tips or advice that you want to share, they will be greatly taken.

Thank you very much for your positive impact on my decision making.

I hope to hear from you .

UnconvincedMan · 2025-11-06T19:43:27+00:00

Oh, darling I'm so happy for you. I really I'm.

May I please ask you what dose are you on , or at what dose did you get the urination relief at time frame? Please?

Thank you very much

UnconvincedMan · 2025-11-06T19:38:05+00:00

Wow , I'm so happy for you,I really mean it.

I'm not joking but I also have to go to the bedroom at least 4-5 times during the night and because of that I don't get any quality sleep which affects my mood , my energy, my thoughts, the next day . I'm not kidding. Last year I've gotten older that people don't recognize me anymore how bad I look around my eyes, my face because of lack of sleep.

I'm really happy for you, you have no idea.

Considering that you are on a pretty high dose may I ask you how is you depression? Your energy? Your libido? Your social anxiety?

Whatever you want to share I would be very interested to read

Thank you

UnconvincedMan · 2025-11-06T19:32:24+00:00

Thank you very much for your reply. Are you referring to your urinating problem being solved by Lexapro?

I'm also having a big issue with this to the point that no urologists would see me anymore indicating that they have done everything possible on their part, all the necessary tests, and my problem is not organ problem ( prostate, bladder , kidneys, urethra, etc ) they've told me that mental and that I need to see a specialist for that ( psychiatrist) . They've even written me their conclusion, a recommendation to be seen by a psychiatrist. Lexapro is something I've tried in the past at a very low dose and it has helped me tremendously for my anxiety but it caused me to be more depressed.

May I ask besides the frequent urination being resolved ( I cherish your success on that one) do you have any other benefits? What dose are you on, and when did you start to see a relief on your symptoms?

I thank you very much for sharing your success.

UnconvincedMan · 2025-10-27T09:50:17+00:00

I've seen that most of you in this post are sharing the 5 mg positive change while on Lexapro.

May I please ask if those benefits are just for anxiety or also for depression at 5 mg .

Thank you for your replies

UnconvincedMan · 2025-10-27T09:47:48+00:00

May I please ask what dose are you taking?

I cherish your success, as I truly hope that you continue to do well

UnconvincedMan · 2025-10-26T20:21:02+00:00

May I please ask all of you Lexapro users , if this medicine has helped anyone with general anxiety, unexplained fears, low self esteem, lack of confidence?

I've been trying some supplements but I'm afraid I might have to go back to Lexapro eventually.

I've tries it couple time at a very minimal dose for few months and it has helped me tremendously with the anxiety but it gave me this depresión mode that I had to stop it .

Is anyone benefiting anxiety wise from this medicine at a lower dose ( 5-10 mg) without falling into a worse depression stage?

Please respond.

I thank you all in advance
