doc wants to put me on Lexapro

I grew a strong craving to Doritos and cheese, which led to many extra lbs. on scale.  I also lost the finer qualities of my personality: being a smart-ass, quick witted and spunky.  Plus, some days, I felt like a slug.   Although the Lexapro helped with the anxiety, the trade-off wasn't worth it.

 
This is the first drug of it's type that hasn't given me bad side effects. I actually kinda like it.

 
no lie the 3 months i was on it, and got off cause i was like i dont need this stuff, lol for being a male it really does give you the cry spells, i would feel bad and think and cry but after the first week i was back to normal, the weird side effects were worse than me tapering down with x@n@x side effects, it lexapro w/ds making you reflect on everything and i did get sleepy alot with it, i had to push through it with lots of energy drinks 

i stick to my x@n@x, this SSRI stuff aint for me, the docs wont take it themselves they textbooks , they classify your symptoms from what they read in their journals, text books, case studies and test and experiment with you. Dont take the chance with a doc who will pump u up with meds and than in the end you crash and burn! 

 
I've been having seizures lately. I read Lexapro can cause it. I'm already prone to seizures. Anyone ever experience a side effect of seizures?

 
i went to a psych back in May for the first time ever and filled out a questionnairre thingy... he RX'd me adderall (one 15mg tab twice/day - we're up to one 20mg tab twice/day now, working my way up to 30mg tab twice/day) and lexapro (started at 25mg and worked up to 50mg).  i have always had issues with social anxiety and such, and i can say that it has helped with that, but other than that, the effects aren't overtly noticeable nor did it change my personality or anything.

  2. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I’m salty myself, being an Ohio state fan, but Miami is winning by the smallest margin. Indiana going to be hard to beat
  3. M @ meepmoopmeep: I’m salty about the SEC being eliminated but good for Miami. it was a well fought game by both teams
  4. M @ meepmoopmeep: Imagine being a 10 seed barely squeaking into the playoffs becoming a cinderella team
  5. M @ meepmoopmeep: I think they can beat Oregon, but Indiana is too good
  6. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: Who thinks Miami stands a chance vs either team (Oregon or Indiana) my bet is Indiana but you never know
  7. S @ sporidicus: delete this though, if it's the wrong place

  11. D @ dhertz9192@gm: Delete
  12. Thoth @ Thoth: @sporidicus honestly depends on the mag. Read read read read the forum
  13. Thoth @ Thoth: CFP needs more of an NBA or MLB playoff structure but that would be hard to structure. Divisions inside Leagues

  15. S @ sporidicus: can anyone help me with a chemistry problem? someone purposefully poured powdered sugar into my mag, i need to see if i can clean it off. any chemists here?

  19. M @ meepmoopmeep: i feel like they deserve it after all of the drama. at the same time though, Indiana is extremely good and will be a mountain for Ole Miss to climb if they make it to the championship game
  20. D @ drdrizzy13: I wouldn't mind seeing Ole Miss win either out of the teams that are left.
