What time of the day do you take it? I take mine before bed and I have yet to have any insomnia with it. I hope the insomnia goes away soon!

> Good luck to you Lexy. I believe that you and I are in pretty much the same situation. I have been on Lexapro for 10 weeks as well, but was upped to 20mg from 10mg yesterday after a meeting with the pdoc. I woke up this morning with the same difficulty I had when I first starting taking the drug, but I know it will take time for my body to adjust again. You will get back to your old self again just like I will.
