depression
"Lexapro helped me a lot!  I'm on 10mg and therapy to talk through my issues I didn't realise the tight feeling in my chest was anxiety...I felt like I had that all day. It completely went away. I take it at night, the downsides are I was always active, the gym was my hobby, when on lexapro I felt not interested at all in exercise and couldn't lift weights like I used to, and I'd be tired in workouts. I often feel tired during the day and could nap, sex Drive is lowered. The plus sides are I am a lot more relaxed, able to think things through properly and it is rare for me to cry now. I don't worry and I enjoy life, I'm still myself just more relaxed, I am in a positive place. I am just slowly tapering down my medication for more energy :)"
