Putford--- just read your post. If you don't mind, read my new post "Having to Stop Lexapro:(-Sugg. for Alt. Meds". Posted it today 4/23. Lexapro did me allot of good, but I've suffered bad gastrological side effects. Now, I'm thinking of going on something else (was considering effexor or wellbutrin)...but after reading your post it's made me think that maybe you're right. Sure my life has been great on Lex and I'm thinking this is the way I SHOULD feel in life (while on the Lex)...but maybe it isn't real and being my somewhat anxious, neurotic, manic self is how it's suppose to be...but, not falling into depressive bouts has been nice. But, as mentioned before maybe it's NOT real walking around being alleviated of all of our quirks and imperfections as human beings. Of course, if someone is suicidal or completely unable to function in life---they need to be on Meds and shouldn't stop taking them. I'm tettering back and forth on whether I should stay on the "med train" or get off of it....maybe a discussion group would be a good idea.
