Hi Mystic,

Remember that meds effect everyone differently. Some people gain weight on Lexapro, others loose weight. The increase to 15 mgs did a world of good for me, with no weight gain and only a few inconvenient side effects. I only increased to 20 mgs to help get rid of the last little bit of anxiety I have. But 15 mgs may be just right for you. Some people on this board have had great results on as little as 5 mgs. If you're really concerned about weight gain there are things you can take to counter that, or you can always start exercising a little bit more.

I'm sure you'll be fine. I would suggest trying an increase to see how it works. If you aren't happy you can always lower your dose again. Either way, I support your decision.

K.
