Hi Darlene. Welcome. I'm new here too.You are my first respond. I have to start out by saying no matter what drugs are working for you It is comendable that even w/ a college degree you are able to be humble and maintain some degree of fruitful employment. You are an inspiration. Give yourself a BIG HUG. I also was sexually abused and know the devestation and innability to live a Happy life it creates. About the Lexapro I can't personally speak about the drug but can only encourage you to at least give it a couple more weeks or even try to figure out if the time of day you take it has any effect on your enrgy and desire to move. I have experienced that issue myself with Zyprexa. It worked very well but my energy during the day was greatly influenced by when I took it. This took me 3 years to figure out. The big difference between people like Operah and us is access to resources and extensive if not expensive support systems and treatments. Sorry if this was long. I pray God provides us the strength and wisdom to simply make it through 1 more minute, then another. Keep in mind looking at life in more managable increments of time. Try getting through the next minute. Later an hour and so forth.
I hope I have helped some. Please let me know if it was too long!
