I have taken celexa and now Lexapro for over 5 years for depression. It has provided no relief for GAD in fact the reverse. SSRIs have diferent effects on everyone. I take 2MG of Klonopin daily with the Lex. Without the K, the side effects of lexapro (insomnia etc) make anxiety worse. I know many people who have a hard time tolerating 2.5 mg day of Lex. Take it slow and keep expaectations realistic. Good luck.
