scarey

[scampi]

Hi all, i have just come across this site while looking up escitalopram which i have just been prescribed, i have taken one, but am really worried now that i have read other peoples experiences on this drug, iv'e suffered from anxiety, and social phobia for about 20 years and have only just managed to talk to my doctor about it. You all seem like a nice bunch, and i hope that you will help me through my first few weeks on the drug, as i have not told any of my family as they already think i am weird!!! I hate seeing people and having to talk to them, people think i am miserable, but its not that, im just scared, hard to explain.

hi nicola and thanks,my problems have stemmed from not being able to forget what people have said, and that is why 20 years later i am still living life like a hermit, and scared of my shadow!! I just hope these new tablets will help me to start living life, for my poor sons sake
