I was on it back in 2002 or so for a short time and I didn't like it. It made it hard to concentrate on anything, which I suppose is it's purpose. But when tattooing, I needed to concentrate. Instead, I felt like a robot, just going through the motions. I was told that it takes 2 weeks to get into your system, making it one of the faster treatment options (if that's true). I was also on Rimeron at the same time so I could get some sleep.

After about 2-3 months of the Lexapro, I just quit taking it and can't remember any negative effects.
