I think the Lexapro is working. I've only been taking it about a week and a half, but already I feel small changes. The anxiety is down. I'm able to feel the kind of happiness -- if even in moments -- that I remember feeling as a kid.
It's no miracle. I didn't expect that. I hoped for results, and I think I'm getting them.

My name is Bob Lane and i would like to show you my personal experience with Lexapro.
I am 51 years old. Have been on Lexapro for 6 months now. Wasn't strong enough for me. Had only mild benefit for depression. For five of the six months I was on it, it worked very well for social anxiety, but kinda pooped out toward the end. Added Wellbutrin at varying doses to address the sleepiness and libido/orgasm issues, but still suffered. Then tried Cymbalta with disasterous results. Might try Zoloft now.
I have experienced some of these side effects-
Extreme sleepiness. When possible, I slept for 12-16 hours a day for the entire six months I took Lexapro. Marked decrease in libido. Completely anorgasmic. Other side effects were mild or non-existent.
I hope this information will be useful to others,
Bob Lane
