i've heard rumors that it may contribute to feelings of anxiety. i'm beginning to believe that one.
but, if you're wanting it for appetite control, it works well in doses at 400 mgs (i can only say that for myself anyway). i do think it's supposed to help at levels over 200 though.
i'm sorry you struggle with this poet. i typically joke 'i must have been bulimic in a former life' because i have no qualms with throwing up, as i hate an upset belly and would rather empty it, than struggle with that upset feeling (i really hope i'm not upsetting you dear.) but, if the lexapro doesn't help, try the topamax. it does curb the appetite. (i may have missed something, but are you jsut wanting to take it for the appetite loss effect? i saw mention of zyprexa, but that made me sleep for all day long.)
kk, with anxiety that is nonstop and not a thing in her belly for 2 days other than coffee and smokes
not trying to interrupt, though i know my interruptions are always welcomed, right? :)
oh, did i mention i'm on topamax, 400 mgs currently? the only mood stabilizer that's worked well for me... can you hear me cackling right now?
