30 Days of Lexapro For Anxiety Review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 жов 2024
- This week I get a little personal with a lexapro review after 30 days of using it for anxiety and depression. I talk about the side effects and positive effects lexapro has had on me so far.
I'm only 10 days in and I am finally beginning to start to see some positive things from it. The initial increased anxiety was almost a deal breaker for me, but I genuinely wanted to push through and give this drug a fair shake. I sincerely appreciate your insight and the detail. Your video is one of the best personal accounts for Lexapro on UA-cam. I'm happy and proud of you, life isn't easy, ESPECIALLY now a days. Good luck, I wish you further success.
Thanks so much 😊
i just started and it makes me sleepy is that normal
@@jonmcmann6811 yes unfortunately, it lasted about a week, maybe close two. It works well for me, the beginning was rough, but I made it through it and I'm honestly so much better. 😊
Dealing with the heightened anxiety now & it’s TERRIBLE 😭 praying this passes soon !!
You can ask your doctor for hydroxyzine, that works insanely well for anxiety. For myself it does anyway.
I am on my 7 th day 5 mg daily, lots of side effects, dizzy, loss of appetite, body chill, will keep going, your video motivate me
update pls?
@AShakur035 I stopped taking the medication after 2 weeks because of the side effects, I drive daily 200 km for living
Me too loss of appetite. More anxiety.
you look happy and calm. Thanks for this honest video
This was a good video. Journaling can help in so many ways. I get what you’re saying about journaling. Have a great week
Could you please tell me how journaling can help? Thanks
I look forward to seeing your upcoming project Kate and glad lexapro is working out for you hopefully you can find the solution one day to enjoy this Blessed life without long term usage of it✌️
I already have crazy dreams so im interested to see what happens haha. Ill be starting in a couple days!
You have such a pretty smile!
Thanks for your insight. Doc prescribed me Lexapro but hesitant to take it due to side effects..
I've had issues with generalised anxiety my whole life (I'm 54 now), a couple of months ago I was going through a particularly bad episode of anxiety and had a few panic attacks which I've never had before. So I went and talked to a psychiatrist and she put me on me 10mg per day lexapro, well after 3 days taking lexapro my anxiety went higher than I've ever felt in my life before and I had a huge panic attack that lasted days, I couldn't eat or sleep or even think straight I basically felt terrified 24/7, after 5 days of this panic attack I just couldn't take it anymore I was getting suicidal it was so horrible, so I stopped taking the lexapro and the panic and anxiety faded away over the next 24 to 36 hours. I have no idea if it would have got better if I had of stuck with it and continued taking the lexapro but at the time it really didn't seem that was the case it felt like it was destroying my mind.
Talk to your Doc , she might prescribe some other medications to you . Lexapro doesn't suits everyone.
@@vratysanu Yeah I'm trying to find a med that works for me, after lexapro I tried Cymbalta that was even worse it made me feel totally crazy I couldn't even leave my home I only took it for 2 days. I'm now trying zoloft today is day 7 on 25mg, it's making me feel a bit weird, kind of hot and amped up, nauseous, and a bit more anxious than usual but nothing horrific, I'm going to stick with it and see how it goes, going to see my doc this afternoon to discuss whether I jump up to 50mg now or do another week on 25mg, I'm a bit nervous so I think I'll stay on 25 for another week to let the startup side effects settle some more.
Suicidal thoughts is one of the side effects of Lexapro in the start
It would have got better after a couple of weeks, same thing happened to me
Try Paxil it worked great at a low dose
Just started it..thanks for the review
The idea of having scary side effects is worrying because I feel on the edge anyway. Not sure I’m mentally strong enough to feel worse
Thank you for making this video
Wow. I’ve had the ‘electric light floater’ vision thing. I know exactly what you are talking about. It never occurred to me that it might be lexapro. My experience, 2 yrs out is overwhelmingly positive. Sleep regulated, reduced anxiety. Over all it’s pretty mild. Still hard to get motivated to do a lot of tasks. I can get overwhelmed and don’t know where to start sometimes. Once I get moving I’m fine. I have had some sex issues. It’s not reduced drive or ability to get wood. It’s just really difficult to climax. I guess some guys might think this is a plus, but it’s kinda frustrating for me.
Did you had hard time to think too? Like brain fog?
@@youregirlbecky7193 - hard to tell because depression presents like that too. I will say that it did take about a full month on it to really feel a benefit. I’m still on it and feeling fine. No side effects except those I felt ramping up that first month.
i look forward to your updates!
Did you get hand tremors last night?
I see my psychiatrist tomorrow… I’m a bit scared bc my anxiety about feeling too much freaks me out…but I’m just desperate to get out of this rut and get into a better place where u can be productive
Thanks for the video any updates on Lexapro
Hey! Just updated 😊
Can you give us an update? This gave me hope.
Just updated, sorry it took so long!
Have you gained any weight? I was taking Sertraline (zoloft) but gained alot of weight almost 30 pounds over the course of 6 months. She switched me to Lexapro to see if that helps.
I am on lexapro and my apettite has been a bit improved but I haven't gained any weight. I tend to crave sugar for a bit higher than I used to.
@@faysalarabwhat dose are you in .
I have the same issue as yours and I am also 33! cheers!
do u think u could have add adhd? (anxietyy is not laziness liek over active mind) if u thin u have add adhd u might wanna try welbutrin, in addition to lexapro 150mg a day, or evn swtic it sowly if its better
Lexapro makes me fart a lot. Have you had similar side effect?
I love smelling my own farts
I thought it was just me. I'm farting like a chainsaw!
