"lexapro quickly lifted me out of depression and kept me that way. i was really impressed at how un-depressed i felt, and with no apparent side effects. as advertised, it worked fabulously as an antidepressent. it lifted me out of the darkness and into the, well, the gray. don&#039;t get me wrong--it was great to be out of depression--just not at the expense of the glint in my eyes. my psychiatrist asked me about my relationships, and it hit me that i didn&#039;t really have any. i couldn&#039;t remember the last time i felt aroused, let alone had an orgasm. he cut my dose in half, but it didn&#039;t help. depression decended rapidly, so he put me back on prozac. it will work well for awhile, but for now i am back to life, love, and some mighty fine sex."
