The same thing happened to me when I first started
Lexapro. At first I was taking just topamax and it
evened me out and made me feel a little better...but then
I started getting depressed. The doc prescribed lexapro
and at first it made me worse. I couldn't sleep, I had
racing thoughts, suicidal thoughts. The p-doc thought
the lexapro was causing me to cycle and so upped the
mood stabilizer dose. That helped.
You could also try lowering the lexapro. I can take very
little Lexapro because I'm so sensitive to it. I take half
of a 5 mg. pill...so that's only 2.5 mgs! But everyone's
different, you'll just have to experiment.
