Thank you everyone for your support and encouragement as I dealt with my Drs office, my mail order prescription servlce, and my insurance just to get my Lexapro. It finally came thru the mail yesterday evening. I take 30mgs of the med but I decided to take only 10mg today, 20mg tomorrow, and my full dose on Sunday. I'm trying to avoid some sort of system shock from going from nothing to 30mgs right away. I was in a lithium toxic coma for three weeks about 5 yrs ago and I would hate to put my family through that again. But again thank you all for your thoughts and support. shaggy
