HI des......I'm on lexapro...........love it.

I cry less often (probably due to the depression being a bit lifted) but still can cry. So that's been nice. It took a bit of time to get the dosage right for me. Once we reached the right dose though, the effects were unmistakable and immediate. My T says its like a light switch, on or off....not a lot of middle ground. You either have the right dosage or you don't. I take 20mg once per day.

Side effects for me were pretty mild:
-Diarreah (gross, sorry, for 3 weeks)
That's gone now....
-Decreased appetite, still decreased
-Bit of sweets cravings
-Sleeplessness (still have, but take sleep aid)

Nothing else.....no stomach upset or anything......
