I was prescribed Lexapro because when I was tapering off Effexor, I developed some "strange feelings" (dizziness, and more). My pdoc had me take it for 2 weeks. During the 2 weeks I felt fabulous almost instantly...but when the Lexapro RX ran out my pdoc said just to continue taking my Wellbutrin which I take 2 x's per day.
I must admit,
I was feeling a little dissapointed about not taking Lexapro, but didn't want to sound a like a "Med Lover" to my pdoc so, I never said anything further until about 1 month later.
I had my appointment with my pdoc and told him that there was something about Lexapro that really made me feel GOOD...."awake, alert,mentally energized"....so, he prescribed it to me. I now take Wellbutrin SR 150mg 2x's per day and Lexapro 10mg every day. I'm on day 3 of Lexapro and feel like I'm on speed....I love this feeling.
