"i posted in oct. my 9 yr. old has aspergers and my life was hard.
it is now the last week of month 2 on 10mg. of lexapro. omg!!! is this what normal really feels like!? please.. if you have anxiety and possible depression give this drug a chance. i feel like a new person. i laugh at shows now, i have a sense of humor again. my spouse is spending more time around me since i am more pleseant to be around. i cooked a small thx giving dinner for 4 from  scratch in 4 hours without stressing it. i can watch sad movies and feel  the emotions but not cry through the whole show or movie.  find myself interested in things i used to enjoy but stopped. i am glad i hung in and listened to others who said to give it 6-8 weeks for full effect.they were right.:)"
