Hi Everyone: Thanks to everyone for sharing your thoughts regarding Lexapro. I have been checking in daily since starting this medication. I am on day 16 and started off on 5mg and then increased to 10mg after a week. I put myself back on 5mg three days ago because the side effects were so bad. I have had major insomnia, my throat feels tight, cannot concentrate, feeling jittery, sweats, and constant nasal drip. How long did it take for your se's to go away? I figured that I stuck it out this far and I am not going to quit now. I have not even tried to have sex. Do not want to add another se onto the list. LOL. It seems like as one se goes away, another one appears. I had major tummy "issues" the first week. Thanks in advance for any information you can give me. Jill
