> Well I have cut the Lexapro down to 5 mg a day and still the anxiety and agitation are horrendous. I think maybe I can not tolerate and SSRI. I was so counting on this med!
Try 2.5 mg for awhile. I have the same problem "getting on" SSRIs and found it takes several weeks of taking very small amounts to allow my system to adjust.
I was going to start Lexapro several weeks ago, but decided to go with Celexa so I could start with tiny dosages (5 mg) and work up.
Good luck.
