I'm still having the same type of thoughts, but they don't seem to be as severe. Things aren't quite as graphic and specific as before, and I'm able to concentrate on other things. The pdoc said he hoped the increase in Lexapro and talk therapy would remove these negative thoughts completely. Good luck to you.....I'm trying to take things a day at a time as well.
> Are you still having the same negative thoughts you were before? if so i'm sorry to hear that..i know it takes time..although i felt much better after a couple of months, the first time i got an AD's it took a good 5-6 months before i really felt back to my old self...but to me it sounds like you are doing exactly what you should be doing in following up with your doc so you will be OK..

I don't like the fact that the fatigue side effect has really set in again, but I know it will go away soon. Hopefully I will be able to stay on this dosage for awhile. I could really notice a change for the better on 10mg, but I know I'm not where I want to be yet. I go back at the end of the month for talk therapy as well as another checkup to see how my dosage is treating me.
