sussus:
Of course you can ask. I've been on 10mg. Lex now for 10 weeks.
Sorry to hear that you're having trouble with anxiety. Maybe it would be a good idea to try raising your dose.
I wish I could offer you more help, however, I've not gone through that yet. So far, the lex has been effective in treating my anxiety except for some very mild anxiety occasionally due to changes in my life, and not necessarily from the lexapro.
There have been other posts regarding this about raising the dose of lex, so maybe they could offer some insight, or others who read this and have experienced what your going through could add some feedback.
Can I ask: is there anything going on in your life that could be contributing to your anxiety? If so, maybe once that's worked through, your anxiety would lessen. If not, I think you'd be doing the right thing about going to your Doc.
What's everyone else think?
Good Luck to you! Hang in there, and I hope it gets better for you!! Let us know what happens, k?
