"absolutely saved my life. after having severe facial pain for 3 months and not one doctor could diagnose me... i started have bad anxiety and depression. i was always that person that was so against anti depressants and anxiety medicine. my family kept telling me i needed to do something so i finally decided to take lexapro! i have been on it for a little over 2 months and it was the best decision i&#039;ve made. it has made me mentally relax and when any issues arise i&#039;m able to think about it calmly and rationally, when before i would panic over everything. the first week the side effects were pretty bad, so make sure you take an anxiety medication with it.               (for 2 weeks -1 month) until the side effects disappear. highly recommend"
