Coming off the Lexapro can make you feel very raw. Feelings can seem heightened, when they are actual feelings not numbed (for a better word) by medication.
You are feeling your feelings again and that is something to celebrate! It's not easy, and it can feel scary, and it can feel like being in new territory with no map.
Give yourself plenty of time to adjust. And plenty of self appreciation for getting through this.

If you can, create a kind of schedule for your day. Do what you can from it and forgive and forget what you don't get to.

Drink a lot of water to help your body recouperate.
