In reply to loosing hope on lexapro, posted by baracuda on April 9, 2003, at 14:28:29
Hi,
I know you're losing hope regarding the lex, but I believe you owe it to yourself to give it at least another couple weeks. I think its pretty common to have to go 6 or 8 weeks or maybe a little more to get the full benefits of the med. It would be a waste to quit on it too early after you've put up with the side effects and such this long. I realize its hard, but tough it out another couple of weeks. Don't jump ship too early. Its obvious you don't want to have to switch to another medication, so give this one a chance......Good luck.....hang in there :o)
