DOSE: |
10 mg | oral | Pharms - Escitalopram | (daily) |
BODY WEIGHT: | 150 lb |
The one thing I did notice during my four month tenure with lexapro is that it greatly diminished my social anxiety. I am deathly afraid of public speaking and have come close to having a panic attack when forced to speak in front of people, but during my time on lexapro I actually tried out for a play.
Maybe it would have helped if the dose were a little higher, but it was not so I started doubling up on them and taking vicodin to feel better and after I was caught I was taken off the lexapro abruptly. I did have a few months where I took a downturn, but after that my body started to do for itself what an antidepressant is supposed to accomplish anyways.
