"lexapro is a lifesaver. do not worry about the negative reviews, and keep in mind that the majority of them have been written by people who got off after days or a few weeks. anxiety got a lot worse in the beginning. when it does, you get scared. scared that the pills won&#039;t work. scared that it will be like this for ever. but it does get better. for me, it really took a long time. i felt a very gradual improvement every week, and after about 3 months my anxiety was practically gone. i feel like a new person - it is amazing that a pill is able to do this. and for any emetophobics reading this: it helps against that fear as well. i didn&#039;t experience any nausea, but kept reglan just in case. sex drive lower, but able to orgasm. life is good."
