Lexapro makes me feel anxious nonstop. Nauseous, poor appetite, exhausted, sexual side effects, cannot sleep unless taken with Ativan... and these factors combined just make me worry all the time. Ativan is the only thing that makes me feel normal. Everything I've read, plus what I've been told, says this could either be my body still adjusting OR an indicator that Lexapro isn't right for me. It would be very unfortunate to assume the latter, increase dosage, only to have things get worse. I'm personally leaning toward weaning off (with my doctor) since I wasn't like this at all before meds. I was going through a period of high stress that resulted in anxiety attacks, but things just got SO MUCH WORSE as soon as I began treating my anxiety with pharmaceuticals.
