I took lexapro for one day and did not like the feeling of being on it. It felt like I was literally high. Instead of taking the 10 mg dosage that the doctor gave me- I cut it in half and only took half of it. I wasn't able to sleep at night. I took it around 2:00 in the afternoon and have been having problems in sleeping. I was up for about 3 days with only 3 hours of sleep. Last night I was able to sleep for about 6 hours. (Thank you Lord!) My doctor didn't want to give me any sleep aids cause it's hard for me to breathe on it and and my heart beats way to fast on it. If I continuesly take this lexapro for anxiety will my body get used to it and how long would that take? Will I be able to sleep like everyone else that post on this site? I would love to sleep alot. Cause it seems the more I sleep the better I feel. I just dont like the feeling of being "high". I can't think straight and it trips me out.
