"this is my second time on lexapro. i took a 6 month break because i am not usually one for long-term medicine and it was causing me to gain weight.



however, i am too a point in my life where i feel like my gad is just going to slowly kill me if i don&#039;t keep it under control (i am 26). anyway, i&#039;ve never had any side-effects to this drug other than weight gain. and, i hope it&#039;s not the placebo effect, but i swear this stuff works the first day. i can feel my anxiety riddled, tense muscles loosening more and more. give it a try! it&#039;s worth a shot to feel better!"
