I was prescribed Lexapro almost a month ago when my anxiety was at an all time high. I took it for 3 days and it was a living nightmare. I felt like my brain was being blocked and I couldn't concentrate and function at all, this resulted in me having panic attacks and shaking all over. After those 3 terrible days I went off of it, silly I know because I know you're supposed to let it work for at least 2 weeks but I was feeling so bad. Now, all I'm taking is Ativan and although it's good for short term, I still feel depressed and still have extremely bad HA. Sometimes I feel like my anxiety/depression switches up, I can feel extremely anxious one day and the next feel fatigued and have crying spells and terrible thoughts which make me feel like I'm losing my mind. I can't do the thing I want without feeling terrible.
I'm thinking maybe I should give it a try again? I had a severe anxiety attack last night for the first time in about 3 weeks & still depressed and never want to get out of bed. I'm starting to think, now that I'm aware what my body does when I'm suffering from anxiety, maybe I won't be that bad like I once was when I first started taking the lexapro? I told myself with therapy and thinking positive I don't need medication but it's been over a month and still feel bad
