Http://www.Crazymeds.Org/l exapro.Html

this is a good link for you. There are also other links on this site to web sites that give personal feedback on these individual meds.

I have never taken it myself.

I was on it for a short time, it did absolutely nothing for me, might as well been a sugar pill.

I was on it for a short while as a trial (i don't currently take meds) and had absolutely no side effects.

I tried lexapro and it turned me into a different person in all the bad ways. I turned into a mean person. The funny thing is that now I am on effexor and it seems to be working for me. Everyone's different. I know people who are on lexapro and it really helps them.

In my opinion lexapro is a wonderful medication and no there should not be any side effects. There should not be any weight gain. It has done wonders for me!!! I am completely out of my depression I would recommend this to anyone!!

I am now taking lexapro. It seems to help enough to take the edge off. However, I am still depressed. I guess like they say medication cant take away everything.I also go for counseling
