I just wanted to get the opinion of some people who might have taken or are taking Lexapro. Side effects? Does it work well? I have taken Prozac in the past but it made me too hyper and I lost too much weight so I stopped taking it. I'm allergic to Zoloft. I've heard from a friend that Lexapro might be good for me. Of course, I will discuss this further with my doctor. Just wanted some other opinions. Thanks. :)

Hi. My husband takes Effexor, which is in the same category as Lexapro, however, it is more geared toward Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Social Anxiety, but also treats depression. He is doing great on Effexor. He does not get panic attacks and is just more laid back. I think it has also helped his inpatience and temper a little bit too. Just a thought...maybe talk to your doc about Effexor. Good luck!

Thanks for the feedback. I will definitely keep that in mind when talking to my doctor. I have noticed that I have been a little more irritible lately (more impatient, indecisive...).
Thanks for the support!

I was on Lexapro for a month and a half. It made me less argumentative, gave me less panic attacks, and better sleep. However, I lost the ability to orgasm while taking it. It took 3 weeks to get that ability back once I stopped taking it cold turkey.
Good luck, hon!
