Edna,
I am so sorry you have been having a bad time of it. And, I was particularly saddened to hear that your daughter was injured by your dog. I do hope she is healing and there will not be any permanent scars. I am also sorry to hear that you will have to give up your dog. But in a situation such as this, it is better to err on the side of caution, no matter how emotional the decision is. I have a dog, and would be heartbroken if she ever bit a human, particularly a child. You are doing the right thing in this situation. You will probably shed a few tears, but that is normal and should not be avoided. An AD does not shelter us from life's ups and downs, but rather help us cope a little better. You should allow yourself to feel the emotions.
I'm sorry that I can't help you with your Lexapro poop-out question. I have never used Lexapro (it is not available in Canada yet). I hope your return to Celexa proves beneficial to you.
Good luck, and take good care.
Tamara

> It's the first day of 30mgs Celexa, but my question concerns lexapro. I know some of you have written in the past about lexapro poop-out when it just stops working as well, and I'd like to hear your stories again because it wasn't working as well at the end there. At least, I think it wasn't--I've had a bad few days. Saturday one of my dogs bit my daughter in the cheek, so we are probably going to have to find him a new home. My husband went ballistic, scruffed him and tossed him into his crate rather roughly, which was extremely upsetting--but that IS our daughter. We cried all day Sunday. Yesterday I received a thanks but no thanks on an abstract I sent out for a publication--and although I don't mention it too often, I am concerned about my career and getting a tenure-track job with a better salary because we often don't have much money at the end of the month. With my teaching load and with mostly freshman students, it's hard to carve out the time or conserve the energy to work on my scholarship. And it's midterm, and we're going to the in-laws for the weekend (it's fall break, or should I say fall-behind break?).
