Hey all,
two weeks ago or more I was prescribed lexapro by my Dr on advice from my psychologist, I just don't think I can take it, I told my pyschologist I'm afarid they will posion me at my session last week and I'm sure she thinks I
crazy now, I am slightly paranoid when it comes to medication I won't even take panadol if I can avoid it as I fear I'll mess up my body, I'm thinking about getting the script filled today after working my courage up after these last couple of weeks, my psychologist says I will find my therapy more helpful if I take them, but the thought that I'm putting something foreign into my system scares me and makes me scared I'll lose control of my body, and I might be allergic or get severe side effects and my worrying will be justified, I explained this to my dr the other day and she says to take them when I'm ready and made me feel less crazy than my psychologist is, has anyone out there experinced these feelings? Is lexapro really worth this intense fear I feel towards them. Any advice greatly appreciated, thank you:)
