> Hey Katia..I was on 10 to start and then went to 20 then to 30 and stayed on 30 for hmmm 4 years..it was great for me but gained a lot of weight and after I went off of it I realized that I was pretty numb those years...but I might not have stayed on it so long maybe that wouldve been better but at the time it was a lifesaver and that is what I hope happens with the Lexapro...Good luck and take good care of yourself...Mystic
I was just wondering because my pdoc had me start at 1/2 of 12.5. He even said that some people even benefit from 1/4 of 12.5. My system is sensitive so I think I'm staying at 12.5mg. I just went up to that yesterday. I'm also on 450mg of Trileptal and 15mg of Seroquel for sleep. (BPII)
Part of me wonders if it's helping at that low level or if it's just my BELIEF that it's helping that makes it help.
