It's been almost a week since I started Lexapro, and I can't believe I didn't start it sooner. They told me it could take a few weeks to start feeling results, but it started working almost right away.
Situations that would have normally put me into a downward spiral, I instead approached with ease, I was able to concentrate at work and most of all I felt happy -- something that I haven't felt in a really, really long time.
As I've previously pointed out, I'm still worried about side effects, but so far, it seems like I'm doing pretty well on it. The first few days I felt very jittery and wide awake, but part of my depression made me always want to sleep, so I can't say if that was actually a true side effect of the pill, or I was just starting to feel normal. I also had a bit of a stomach issue, but that may have been from something I ate and had nothing to do with the pill.
They say Lexapro isn't addictive, but I'm hooked -- in a good way of course. My fear is that I NEVER want to go back to feeling like I did before.
