Can anyone talk to me about problems with lack of inhibitions while taking Lexapro? A very good friend of mine has totaly ruined her marraige because of unconcern for costs of fooling around, and it started a couple months after being placed on Lexapro.
I took celexa for 6 years . It is also an antidepressant like lexapro. I felt like a character on Saturday night live or Jim Carrey going wild. I discovered that if you're bipolar, antidepressants have this mania high effect on you. I was taken off of celexa by the VA and put on depakote to see if I'm bipolar. I still don't know if I'm bipolar but I know that the antidepressant celexa caused me anxiety, stress, and made me loose my inhibitions. I believe the Depakote almost completely took away my social anxiety and stress. I do feel like I could use a little antidepressant but I don't risk it. Hope this helps
I took Lexapro for about five weeks and entered a manic state of uninhibited psychosis. I just left my family and did some whacky things; I was eventually placed in a psychiatric hospital and given drugs to counter the Lexapro. It was the worst experience of my life. I attribute the adverse reaction to being misdiagnosed with depression only, but I should have been diagnosed as bipolar. Leaxapro, and drugs like it, can cause this very severe adverse reaction to people who are bipolar. What a trip!
