    If you keep putting it off you'll never do it.
    Over the years I've found that if you let anxiety beat you once it'll beat you every time.

    Good for you :-)!!

    You may be pleasantly surprised, and have little or no side effects.

    My Dad went on escitalopram over a year ago, and, when I asked him about his side effects before I started it, he looked at me like I had two heads;-). He didn't have any side effects starting on them. He didn't even realize it was a "thing". Some people are lucky and have no issues with starting :-).

    I really do hope I’m one of those!! Still going to only take the 2.5mg as that way I’ll feel more comfortable

    Starting at 2.5 sounds like a good idea. I'm glad I started on a lower dose than what I was prescribed, even though it's taking me longer to find my ideal dose ;-).

    How's it going Mumzy.
    I just finished my 2 week taper off Zoloft onto Lexapro and all went well.
    On 10mg Lexapro now with no side effects.
