Re: Taking escitalopram as a young adult
I started taking it when I was 24, and am now 25. No suicidal behavior here, and less suicidal/"I just don't want to be here" thoughts than before I started taking it.
It's definitely something to watch for, but I'm sure you'll be fine. Is there someone who knows you'll be starting it that check up on you and make sure you're coping well?
