Yeah, I'm on a non-therapeutic dose of lexapro now and it does nothing for me, other than give me extreme nausea, brain zaps, and severe depression if I stop it.
I've only tried 1 antidepressant ever, and that is/was lexapro. My pdoc won't give me another one because he says it'll make me manic. But I'm totally fine if my pdoc would swap out lexapro for Wellbutrin, or something like that, even if Wellbutrin is useless. At least it'll make the "two antidepressants" criteria
