Share your Lexapro success story

I successfully tapered off Lexapro. I just did it very slowly, following my doctor's orders. It was not without some minor side effects like a bit of brain fog in the beginning, but they went away quickly. I'm now living a normal life without relying on Lexapro.

I started Lexapro 5mg because I had general anxiety disorder. It was really affecting my daily life. After just a few weeks on it, I could already see a difference. I was sleeping better, which was a huge plus as my anxiety used to keep me up at night. And I started to feel more at ease during the day. It's been a great help.

Lexapro has been a miracle for my OCD. I had tried other medications before with little success. But with Lexapro, I started seeing improvements within a month. The intrusive thoughts became less frequent, and I was able to resist the compulsions more easily. It didn't happen overnight, but gradually, I regained my confidence and was able to engage in social activities again without constantly being distracted by my OCD symptoms.

I was on Lexapro for a while and was really worried about discontinuing it. But I followed my doctor's advice and tapered off slowly. I had some mild side effects at first like a bit of dizziness, but they passed quickly. Now I feel great and am so glad I was able to successfully stop taking it. It's been months now and no signs of the old problems coming back.

I was on Lexapro for about a year. When I started coming off it, I was really nervous. But I did it gradually as my doctor advised. I started feeling better within a few weeks. I had more energy and my mood was more stable without the drug. I think the key was the slow tapering process.

My own experience with Lexapro 20 mg was a success. I had problems with panic attacks. They were really debilitating. Once I started on Lexapro 20 mg, the frequency of my panic attacks decreased. It gave me the confidence to go out and do things again, like going to the grocery store or meeting friends. It was a huge relief.

I've heard a story about a person with anxiety disorder. Lexapro worked wonders for them. Before taking it, they were constantly in a state of worry and panic. But as they continued with Lexapro treatment, they gradually became more calm and were able to face daily stressors without overreacting. They were even able to start socializing more, which was a huge step forward for them considering their previous state of anxiety.

Yes, I can. I know a person who had severe anxiety. After starting Lexapro, within a few weeks, they noticed a significant reduction in their panic attacks. They could start going out more and socializing without that overwhelming sense of dread. Lexapro helped them get their life back on track.

I had really bad social anxiety. Lexapro helped me so much. I can now go to parties and social events without feeling like I'm going to die. It just made me more relaxed and confident in social situations.

One success story is that of my friend. He was on Lexapro for a while. When he decided to quit, he worked closely with his doctor. They tapered the dosage gradually. He had some minor withdrawal symptoms like mild dizziness at first, but with proper diet, exercise and lots of rest, he overcame them. Now he feels great and more like his old self without the need for the medication.
