First 3 days, at times I feel like I'm falling apart

Sleeping too much

I also take it with xanax

Any ideas?

Can't function like this

Can you function without it? If not then it might be best to give it time to see how things level out in a few weeks or maybe a different drug would be better? I think most doctors would suggest giving it time but have you talked to your doctor? Might be a good place to start.

It took me a few weeks to level out on Lexapro. It made me feel very lightheaded and gave me horrible cramps. Although in the end I still had GI issues and depression came back so I couldn't take it any longer.

I took it for driving anxiety. Was already on other meds and did not notice any side effects. Sorry you are having a rough time.
