Escitalopram
"I suffered from anxiety for many years and as I got older it became horrible. Palpitations and things that do not seem to bother others would destroy me on the inside. I began taking Lexapro 10mg. At first it did help but then I started to have long lasting headaches...sensitive to light and feeling that I was "numb" from the neck up. I completely shut out the outside and withdrew from 90% of everything I liked. I read all of the reviews about the medicine as far a getting off of it, and I felt that it was pushing me further into a hole. I decided to take it every other day for one week, then half the dose and half the days. My advice is drink lots of water/ Fish oil every other day/ You must walk/ Eat even if you must force yourself/Sleep at night."
