"diagnosed with major depressive disorder 9 months ago, my whole life just fell apart, i coudn&#039;t sleep, couldn&#039;t eat, was having panic attacks every day. tried every herbal remedy on the market but none of them worked. started lexapro 4 months ago and it has helped to lift my mood by about 40% i am sleeping better but i am always tired and foggy headed everyday. i find myself being happy and full of life only 1 day a week then i will go back to the same way again, i am so sick of the ups and downs, last week i had 2 good days then a whole week of crying and feeling terrible. after 4 months it is just not doing what i thought it would have done for me. i feel like i will never get my old like back"
