"i started lexapro for major anxiety and moderate depression. i&#039;m on 6 weeks and finally feeling better. i am more energized and motivated than ever. because of my bad anxiety, i went from 5mg, to 10mg, and then to 20mg. it&#039;s been a long battle but i am feeling hopeful again and want to do things! the anxiety is still barely there. the depression is gone! i can&#039;t wait until i see the full effects at around 2 months."
