Ive been on 10mg of lexapro for about 6 years now. They helped for a while and I experienced very minor side effects when I started.

After many years of feeling fine, suddenly I'm experiencing what I think are side effects of the drug based on other posts here. I constantly feel dizzy/unbalanced, stomach pains, numbness in my face, occasional tingling in my head, migraines.

These symptoms may be totally unrelated to the drug, but I'm unsure.  Why would I suddenly be having these symptoms? I've been taking this drug for many years without issue. Perhaps it's time I get off the drug? I fear this will only exacerbate the symptoms.

I switched from lexapro to the generic escitalopram a long time ago. Maybe a year, not sure. I felt fine then as well, but that may be important to note.

These side effects are really reducing the quality of my life. Working is difficult and I just want to feel normal again. As far as I'm concerned, this drug is poison.
