Thinking Of Going Back On

Updated

I was on 10 milligrams of Lexapro for approximately 10 years I felt pretty good however the last year's so I develop some anxiety so my doctor wait to be off of it about 6 months ago about 2 weeks ago she tried me on Zoloft which I had a very very bad reaction of complete anxiety and feeling horrible I'm not sure what to do. I want to go back on Lexapro because it worked for me for years I just don't know if I'll have the same effect that I used to or not does anyone have any thoughts on this please and thank you!

I just wanna say i have experimented with lexapro alot and what ive found is do not ever stop it cold turkey and if it worked stay on it. If you do develop any anxiety or depression some sort of group therapy will work no need to spend hundreds of dollars on counciling when all you want is to not feel alone it really was life changing but i promise it will get better just dont ever stop without weaning yourself off it has to be done slowly. But the side effects will not happen if you do it the right way. I have experienced all of the worst with lexapro but ive also experienced the good ive actually just started back on it after being off of it for over a year and a half.
