Lexapro Fog ?

Posted by sexylexy on January 8, 2004, at 17:30:02

Hi Everyone...
I get so lost on this website but am very glad for it. I have a question and hope you all can show me the light ...
Does anyone have the spacey,foggy, day dreamy, tunnel vision from Lex? If you all do, how long does it last... does it go away, when?
I called my Pdoc today and she said that 40%-50% of us get that feeling and it should go away. I am on day 1 of week 3 so I am hoping it goes away someday soon as the rest of my s/e have.
Also does anyone have any bruising on Lex? I had to go get my blood platlets checked today because I am starting to look like someone beats me!
Ok all the luck and Gods Blessing
Lexy

That spacey feeling pretty much was gone for me around week 4. I used coffee to help get over it, and because I love it and drink it everyday anyway but it seemed to help.

I did not experience increased bruising (always did so I doubt if I could tell) but I have read other posts here complaining of it as a Lex se.

Good luck~~~8|8

Hi, it was about 4 weeks for me too. After that I started feeling completely back to normal. My friends that are on SSRIs all joke about that first month fog. Best of luck.

It's great to hear that the Lex "fog" clears up soon. I'll be starting on week 4 after today.

Lexy, I was VERY foggy the first 2 weeks I took Lex. But I've noticed a slight improvement during the third week. Hope this helps.
