"i was an abusive controlling husband for 10 years. i went into a depression 6 months ago and hit rock bottom 4 weeks ago at which time i was dragged to a doctor and prescribed lexapro. the first week was rough but after that all was okay. the fog slowly lifted and now just 1 month later. i am a completely different person. i no longer get angry and abusive, i mean i went from being the worst husband to the most considerate man you could ever meet (words of my wife). i have suffered from low self esteem all my life and always worry and over think. now i never dwell. so far this medicine is a miracle for me. i will wait and see but for now it has saved me a lot of grief."
