Anxiety
"There are a lot of negative reviews about this medicine and it&#039;s side effects, and that makes a lot of people beginning the medicine, including myself, freak out. The people having a positive experience with Lexapro are out living life. Don&#039;t be discouraged. For me, Lexapro started working in the second week, but would work on and off for the first month. I started at 5mg and slowly went up to 15. I&#039;m on week 5 and it hasn&#039;t done much for my anxiety (yet) but it has helped my moods tremendously. For the first month I had muscle aches and headaches, and I was really tired and unmotivated. That went away in week 4 and I&#039;m feeling better than I have felt in two years."
