-- Posted by xidontcarex at 9:42 am on Aug. 14, 2008 Does anybody have any experience with it? Good or bad? I guess I'm not too optimistic about it. And sorry I'm not making much sense. Tired and sick, not a good combination. -- Posted by MushroomSatsujin at 9:42 am on Aug. 14, 2008 Didnt do shit for me. I did a test sample for about 2 months. -- Posted by LottieBabes at 9:43 am on Aug. 14, 2008 Nope never heard of it sorry. look it up on internet? -- Posted by clavicle at 9:43 am on Aug. 14, 2008 It was one of the best medications I have taken. It worked the fastest, and lasted the longest of all of my medications. I just went to a new medication about 3 months ago. But I loved Lexapro. I only went off of it because I build tolerance very quickly. -- Posted by robdude at 9:48 am on Aug. 14, 2008 Quote: from LottieBabes at 12:43 pm on Aug. 14, 2008 Nope never heard of it sorry. look it up on internet?  idiot -- Posted by major at 2:43 pm on Aug. 14, 2008 i'm on it and i have trouble sleeping but my anxiety is down -- Posted by malignant melanoma at 8:27 pm on Aug. 14, 2008 I took it once when my anxiety was really bad, and I was suicidal years ago. I went off about a few months through. It only gave you the chance to be happier, didn't necessarily work like magic. -- Posted by duesxmachina at 8:56 pm on Aug. 14, 2008 if you are bipolar they have about 1% chance of working. antidepressants actually made me suicidal. watch out. -- Posted by Medicated Smile at 9:03 pm on Aug. 14, 2008 Been on it for... 2 years? Benifits:  Slightly less suicidal. Cons:  No sexual libido, anorgasmia, inability to consume alcohol -- Posted by silentstag at 5:42 pm on Aug. 16, 2008 It helped my mom, but she gained weight on it. -- Posted by Poker Shark at 8:19 pm on Aug. 16, 2008 It worked really well for a little while. -- Posted by Anonymous at 2:37 pm on Aug. 17, 2008 It did nothing for me. Granted I was later diagnosed bipolar and SSRI's often don't work or actually make bipolar disorder worse. -- Posted by CaliKevin at 2:32 pm on Aug. 18, 2008 My mother just went on that recently after finding out that she had some emotional imbalances like depression. Our experience with it so far is slight nausea, and it sometimes makes her goofy... But that's kind of how she always is. I have seen an improvement in her personality and happiness since she started it, but I don't know exactly how she feels about it. I think mainly you just need to make sure that you have some food in your stomach before taking it, or very soon after.  Otherwise it could make you nauseas and possibly throw up.  And we all know that's not a lot of fun. Hope this helps, feel free to PM me if you have any other questions, or just want to talk. -- Posted by BlueEyedBrielle at 5:44 pm on Aug. 18, 2008 Never been on it but I'm bipolar, so not a good idea
