Withdrawel from Lexapro

Posted by anxiousbabe on September 12, 2005, at 20:35:10

Hi, I was just wondering if anyone has any information for me. I am on my 4th day of lexapro withdrawel and I need to know what other people have been experiencing. This is my 3rd attempt weaning off the Lexapro because of weight gain, headaches, forgetfulness, and pure lack of energy. I honestly can't remember anything since I was on this drug.

I have been on it for a year and a half now just for anxiety and I have gained almost 40 pounds. It cured my anxiety for the most part, but now I am suffering from a little depression because of the drastic weight gain. I could have dealt with 15 pounds, but 40 is a bit much to accept especially on a 5'4" petite frame.

However I was just looking for some input and I was reading in various sites how most people gain between 20 and 40 pounds from this drug. I was wondering if anyone who has successfully weaned off the lexapro has lost the weight they have gained. I tried diet and excercising everyday and still no change with the weight.
