Yes I am on Lexapro and I find it very helpful. What strength are you on? If it's not helping you it could be that you may need a little bit more. You can just go up by half a tablet for instance if you're taking 5 milligrams maybe try 10. But also keep in mind that they say it can take 6 to 8 weeks before you notice any difference so give it a little bit of time. Mine actually seemed to kick in pretty quickly and I I'm on 5 milligrams. I tried to 10 milligrams but it seemed too strong for me so I went down to half a tablet. Also keep in mind that maybe Lexapro isn't the one for you and that you may need to try something different but I would at least give it a chance and give it at least 8 weeks to see how you're feeling. Good luck to you. Don't be afraid to talk to your doctor about it and get their advice

I was on it for years for depression before having my daughter. I would say it helped, but I did gain weight, and felt like all my feelings were "numbed." I hope it works for you. I will tell you that getting off of it was very hard physically. Best wishes.

That almost happened when they put me on symbalta. I got so very very depressed that I came close to ending it all.

Hi, I have taken Lexapro a long time ago. I had no side affects from it at all. It did what it was suppose to do for me at the time. Now unfortunately I am on something stronger. I hope this helps. 😇💫Zoey
