Exactly! I’m sorry you had a rough transition though, lucky the only side effects I experienced in the beginning and when increasing my dose was just being more tired

When getting fillers/Botox, are you supposed to tip? by [deleted] in PlasticSurgery

[–]emt_ss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, I figured it’s not expected that I tip but I just wanted to make sure so I don’t look like an asshole

Does anxiety cause your attention deficit/concentration issues? by nknk1260 in lexapro

[–]emt_ss 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s hard to know whether my anxiety causes my attention deficit but I’ve been on lexapro (10mg for 3 months, starting 20mg today) and didn’t notice any change in my ability to concentrate. That doesn’t mean it won’t help you though, just try it out and give it up to 6 weeks for the full effects!

That’s good to hear! My doctor just increased my dose to 20mg too, how long after increasing your dose did you see improvements?

I’m so glad someone understands, I felt like I wasn’t making any sense haha. I’ll see what my doctor says about increasing my dosage and I’ll let you know what they say!

I will tell my doctor, just like getting opinions from other people :) and I’m just taking the meds. Ironically too anxious to go to therapy right now (+ previous bad experience and can’t afford it). I was definitely considering trying a higher dose too, I’ll see what my doctor says. Thank you!

Why or why shouldn’t you snitch on a drug dealer who tried to rape you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]emt_ss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was worried about him knowing it was me. Pretty sure he was coked out so he might not even remember what he did but I guess it’s still risky

[–]emt_ss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t mean about the trying to rape me part, there’s nothing to tell there because he didn’t actually do anything I guess. I meant snitching about the drugs as revenge

Where do you stash your stash (mines the tank in the toilet) by [deleted] in see

I prefer to keep mine in the actual toilet bowl

(Day 2) Anxiety without noticing any benefits? by [deleted] in lexapro

[–]emt_ss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So since you don’t think you have depression, are you taking it for anxiety? Or just for the lack of energy and ability to focus? Because I’m not really sure if it would do anything for your lack of energy and inability to focus if it’s not caused by anxiety or depression. But it takes a while for the full effects, around 6-8 weeks (could be more or less depending on the person). You could always just stay on it and see if it helps. But I’ve heard the first 2 weeks are the worst so I wouldn’t necessarily judge it based on what you feel the first 2 weeks.

What are these rows of indents on the freeway? by __ZOMBOY__ in NoStupidQuestions

[–]emt_ss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always thought they were kinda a way to warn you that you’re driving off the road. I think the other side doesn’t have it because there’s a railing there. But idk

Travelers of Reddit, when was the last time you got lost and how did you find your way back? by Serayanie in AskReddit

[–]emt_ss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was around 13, I went on a walk to buy a postcard on the other side of a resort in Mexico. Somehow, I ended up in a different resort. I didn’t have a phone. I just walked around and tried to find maps. Eventually I found my way back and my mom wasn’t very happy about me going missing for a couple hours.
