"lexapro changed my life. i was a very moody person and never considered medication until my doctor did. i am so glad i am on it. the only side i have is that i get these little &quot;shocks&quot; that only last a short time but can be annoying. the strange thing is that they start about 22-24 hours after a dose. after i take it they are gone till the next day. other than that i love it."
