Update.
After a few months of feeling like a mindless zombie, floating through life unable to feel good or bad about anything and dealing with a total lack of sex drive and other sexual dysfunction side effects I went cold turkey off 20mg Lexapro a week ago.
I feel better than I have in the last 6 months, I'm starting to have actual feelings again. The only side effect - I sleep a solid 8 hrs a night minimum and wake up feeling great. I also no longer desire food when I'm not actually hungry which is good.
I know this medication is there for people who truly need it but I am way better off without it. Cheers for all the info, hopefully I don't have to update again!
