• How long will side effects last after quitting Lexapro?
|
I took Lexapro 20mg for a few months, but just found out I am pregnant. So, of course I quit cold turkey. My head feels like it is swimming and I am dizzy most of the day. I know this is a normal side effect, but it is HORRIBLE since it is mixed with morning sickness! So, any idea how long it will last?

• (Lexapro) side effects, crazy, aggressive, very emotional. HELP?
|
hi,
I've been taking lexapro, 20mg for about a month and a week now. just recently, i dont know if it has anything to do with it, i didnt take them for two days.
The first day i didnt take it, I was a little jumpy but not enough to notice this as being a side effect.
(first day), for "sinco demayo" or whatever some of his old friends came over, we had drinks ect. and i later found out that two of his friends did coke in his bathroom, when i found out i bursted into his room, and said i know coke is going on in this house and will not tollerate it. The two that did the coke left, without saying a word. so i kind of broke up the party.
(day two) Ever since i woke up i felt so enraged,at those two for having the nerve to do that, and not even ask, at least. I was so enraged all i could talk about what "fuhking someone up" and i really was ready to do that...my roomate hates violence so he told me to stop talking about it. i did, later my anger/anxiety (in the chest) ->
<continued>
Built up so much that i got home and flipped out, for real this time, my anxiety was so bad i felt a pain in my chest, i kept talking about fighting those two. After my roomate told me hes going to his room and to leave him alone i brought up other issues that had nothing to do with the previous night just roomate issues... and blew up on him.
i would never touch "him", i love him as my friend. but i flipped out.. for real.
i threw everything off the counter when he closed his door and screamed to try and let some anger out without kicking my way through the wall to the next apt. I screemed hurtful stuff to him through the door and felt so aggressive and confused at the same time i beleive if someone would have slightly offended me in that moment i would have put them in the hospital, for months.
i ended up breaking down and crying eventually.. my roomate came out and we talked..he told me " i told you not to take lexapro, it made me crazy"whats going on? help

• Lexapro side effects?
|
In the past (before I was pregnant), I was on 20mg daily of Lexapro for just under 2 years. During my pregnancy, I stopped.
Now I am back on 15mg daily (which seems to be working fine), and I have been back on it for just about 5 months.
I am taking it for GAD (general anxiety disorder) & depression.
I have NOT had side effects such as: nausea, sleeplessness, anorgasmia, etc.
I am generally more happy! But, these are wierd things I've noticed, anybody know if these symptoms/side effects are normal, or even from the meds?: hard to concentrate, zone out easily, either really talkative or not at all, some lightheadedness, wierd dreams/nightmares...
Any insight is appreciated :)

• Lexapro - side effects and starting dosage ?
|
I am curious from ppl who have used it , what negative side effects you had and what dosage you would recommend to start on (and if you worked up to a higher one).
My doc had started me on 20mg and it _seemed_ like it made me have some heart palpitations so I quit taking it after 3 days.. but I was already getting some of these missed beats because of my anxiety/panic condition, which is the main problem, not depression.
So Im curious if it likely did or did not effect my heartbeat and if maybe I could try it again at a smaller dosage initially. Just after other ppls experiences with it really I guess.
Thanks!

• i was on 10mg of Lexapro and now i just started 20mg. How long until i feel the higher dose and side effects?
|
I have been on Lexapro for almost a year and i just started the higher dose tonight par my doctors order, and i was wondering if there would be a several week peroid until i felt the benifit like when i first started it, or would it be sudden because it was already in my body.
and should i expect the same side effect as i felt when i first started it such as tiredness? any other info is great!
