Hi Mystic,
Just a quick side note, my cycles have gotten progressivly better and hoping that one month soon I will forget that my period is coming up so I can stop freaking out when I anticipate it! Good luck this month, also, I know when I was first starting lex I kept waiting for things to get worse when I started to feel better, you know what, a lot of times I have a day where I am feeling off, however, I have been able to bounce back, since upping my dose, those days seem to be fading and I am feeling much better. I am looking forward to seeing what 20mg will do for me as I just started today. Good luck, sorry your feeling bad, as a therapist I might suggest that you keep a symptoms and feeling scale journal. Each day write your physicial feelings that this depression/anxiety has given you, I can give you some examples of mine, feeling broken hearted, feeling numb, having very negitive thoughts present in my brain ect, also a scale of 1-10 how you are feeling that day overall. Slowly you will see your symptoms fade, unfortunetly fighting this disease seems to be such a process which takes time and as much strenght as God will give. You will start to feel better, I know we are all going to come to a day where we wake up and feel comfortable and happy in our own skin.
God Bless.
Lexy
