Mystic,
I am on Lex for depression but as a result of being on Lex I have calmed some of the anxiety that I had but never realized it was controlable(sp?) (LOL). I always knew I was very sad, but there were things that I would constantly worry about. I started at 10mgs. After awhile I was getting sad again. My Dr. said to go up to 20mgs. I took 15mgs for about a month and felt kinda in limbo during that month. Since I have been on 20mgs I have been feeling really good. I really feel like my old self is coming back. I am getting happy with my self and standing up for my self. There was alot of self examination that has helped this happiness but I think the Lex has helped me be able to make some life changes. I guess what I am trying to say (the long way) is try the increase to 20mgs when you get the strength and don't expect instant results - just try to wake up every morning thinking that things are going to be good today!! I hope the best for you because are a very special person and deserve to be happy.
Sorry to be so long. Take care of yourself and I will continue to pray for your happiness!
Gator
