Feeling Shity after Stopping Lexapro

Hello, does anyone of you have any experience from withdrawing from 20 mg of Lexapro? I have tried but getting sweats, anxiety, moodiness and manic like actions. In one word, I have been felling shity after stopping Lexapro. Does anyone have idea how to decrease a dose or completely stop? The period does not matter.

Hi, I just quit taking this medicine about a week ago. First, I took 10 mg, and then cut down to 5 mg for about 7 days and then I took none. I felt and still feel that my brain it is going to explode and my eyes hurt. I have heard symptoms can last 3 months or more. I just hope not. Good luck.

I stopped taking this medicine in December and I was really hot and sweaty all the time! I'm so glad it's over.
