I have been taking Lexapro, currently at 30mg, and experienced some weight loss initially, due to feeling so tired that I did not feel like eating and just slept. This went on for 2 weeks. Then on the 3rd week, I started having insomnia and soon after that I started eating and have gained back the 10lbs I lost. Currently, I am struggling not to gain any more weight. However, the most important thing is that I am currently unipolar depression free. It took 45 days for Lex to kick in and the first couple of weeks were difficult, but the end result for me is what counts. I recommend Lexapro especially if you have tried all the other SSRI's, TCA's, SNRI's or MAOI's like I have. I have been on AD's for over 12 years.
