I've been on lexapro now for 2 weeks for panic attacks, i started off with 10mgs but i got lots of negative side effects, mostly headaches which got to the point where i couldn't do anything but hold my head. after 3 days i droped down to 5mgs, still got a few headaches, i think i'm starting to feel the effects, i feel way more relaxed haven't had panic attacks in about a week, but i also feel very stoned. Simply i feel tired, relaxed but cloudy, also i can't seem to study, or work very well.
Anyways, just a general question, has anyone experimented with taking just 2.5 mgs of lexapra? Would anyone recommend it, or should i stay with the 5mg does right now?
I realize that normal doses are 10-20, but i feel like i might want to try to cut back even more. I never felt depressed and i never felt anxious i just had a lot of panic attacks in my car, ultimatly i don't want to screw any benefits that i have gotten so far.
