Hey, anyone on lexapro - has anyone noticed a bad reaction to sugar?? I mean seriously - I'm like totally craving it all the time now (after being off sugar for 9 months) and not only that but it is like the sugar makes the side effects of lexapro worse.... turns me in to a zombie or something.... i find myself staring off with wide huge eyes for several long minutes at a time.... or going into auto pilot and have no idea of what i'm doing. Meanwhile, underneath the skin, i'm totally jittery and shaking.
what's the deal?!

Haven't had that with Lexapro, but this a few others. Have a look at Macrobiotics, they explain sugar cravings quite well... Ying / Yang thing, but read it with an open mind.. There are also suggestions on how to cut down the craving, found them quite useful and best of all they seemed to work.

Good luck

Never heard of that before . I know when i was in the hospital they didn't give you anything with caffeine and sugar was like a drug there .They would fight over it drink pancake syrup if it was left out.
