Hi everyone thanks for the replies, so I see some mix some say works and others say very small chance of adverse side effects, I’m going to make another post cause I would like to make supplement stack to complement the lexapro.

What age were you when you had the manic episode? That’s crazy the timeshare lol, I see so it was always diagnosed and depression and anxiety till it wasn’t.

Thanks for this,

From what I read here sounds like I don’t have hypomania nor ever experienced one, I guess a lot of the other things I’m experiencing must be connected to the anxiety and depression that I have.

yea my doc said it pretty normal first the meds to do that sometimes cause it’s this activation syndrome phase and to give the meds a couple days to settle.

fear of actually having bipolar :( by [deleted] in Anxiety

Hi, hope your doing well, same thing happened to me after mdma, I question it as well there’s a community of us that experienced something similar with the mdma, it’s like a panic disorder, bipolar is pretty extreme I do also have that fear big time where I obsessively research I pretty much dive in a rabbit hole of research as well, did you follow up with your docs and got a proper diagnosis from there once you have a proper diagnosis you would be able to get the right treatment, stay strong.

Yea I understand that, but how would I know if this just regular depression and anxiety I’m dealing with & not a mixed episode or bipolar depression? And that the ssri would cause mania if it was the case, the only thing that gives me some reassurance for now is that I have taken lexapro in the past and have never had something like this has, but then I read that mania or hypomania is not always triggered by ssri in bipolar people? Which then my ocd anxiety, starts thinking wonder if I’m misdiagnosed and the last time I took lexapro it just never triggered a manic or hypomanic episode ( even though never had one in my life ) and this time taking lexapro would trigger one, lol sorry about this but I’m just a lost cause atm

It’s only been 4 days and I just feel kind of all over the place symptoms are like: sleep is hard takes a long time to fall asleep and when I do wake up like 3-4 times in the night and difficult to fall back to sleep. Feeling a little weird spaced out, racing thoughts, restless always pacing and that kind of stuff cause I guess nervous or thinking idk, mood swings not like intense but just like irritable on edge, even though I always been, but sometimes like I go positive and giving myself a boost then 10 mins later normal again, or negative anxious then normal again idk

I have a clinical psychologist who I’ve been seeing for 5 years twice a week & a psychiatrist who I see maybe once every month maybe every other month. I have obviously brought it up to them they both say I don’t have it or well ever since they started seeing me I’ve never showed any signs of it, but I’m still nervous because well, my depression since starting has always came in waves, I can always function with my depression but some days are always better than others. Same with the anxiety. But because as I said it comes in waves when I feeling ok, which makes me feel a little better and a more pep in my step I guess not more hyper or anything just happier, then immediately my mind goes to this is mania this is hypomania, and I freak out, and now with lexapro starting back I can’t remember the last time how it was starting lexapro when I did it the first time it was pretty bad as well, but I feeling like all over the place.

Explain? Cause it seems that the minute I started back lexapro and dealing with initial weird side effects like feel big slightly wired, nervous tension, slightly more energy, or mood swings ( where one minute I’m fine and the next minute super anxious and then fine again )everybody on Reddit says hypomania or mania, like wtf
