In reply to POOP OUT!!!!!!!!!!, posted by BLKVETTES on September 13, 2003, at 13:26:32
Soooo glad that this "poop out" thing is being adressed. After hearing about poop-out, I really began to wonder what it was and if I could expect it for myself. Still a newbie to the wonderful world of meds., you know.
So, I asked my pdoc. about it, and she said pretty much the same thing you did, Wayne. That when it seems Lexapro is losing it's effectiveness, it probably isn't that at all; but instead, something in one's life that would normally cause a reaction of depression or anxiety.
Yet, I still wasn't convinced. Even though she IS a doctor and I wanted to believe her, I have a tendency to believe those who have experienced it. So, thanks Jim and Wayne, for fulfilling my curiosity about this. It only makes sense that life still happens and we will continue to experience negative feelings even on the meds.
