WOW!! I could have written your post as well!! I am extremely sensitive to EVERYTHING now, and not just psychiatric drugs. Allergy medicines that I took for years I can no longer tolerate, or can only take at a much reduced rate only every couple of days. So I tried to get allergy shots instead (kind of a medical form of homeopathy :) but unfortunately went in to anaphylactic shock after 5 months of shots, so that ended that (still trying to get the body back together after that fiasco!!) For me, I suspect even 1mg of Lexapro would be too much for me at this point (based on the 2years where they threw just about every med they could think at me. After getting somewhat better from rTMS, the thing that has seemed to help the best is just not re-assulting my brain. (And yes, all the herbal stuff is too much as well!!) It means I live a limited life at the moment. Not the life I wanted or ever pictured for myself. But it is a far cry better than the hell I was in for five years. Thanks so much for posting.
