"i was not going to take lexapro after reading all the reviews. i was really skeptical about the side effects. i read one very positive review &amp; it changed my mind. i am so glad i started lexapro two months ago. i was put on lexapro for anxiety. i was always in a bad mood &amp; everything set me off. i started with 10mg &amp; saw a slight improvement the first week. it wasn&#039;t until the dr put me on 15mg about a month in that i really saw considerable improvement. two months later i can honestly say i am am so happy to be on this medication. everything just seems better. i am happy. i find joy in the things i used to. i look forward to social events. my mood is so much better. i did not gain weight. no sexual side affects. please give it a try!"
