LOL okay......... I took my Lexapro this morning again and slept most of the day!!! What is weird, is that I take meds at night (2mg Klonopin, 25mg Lamictal, Topamax,and Flexeril) and I have a hard time sleeping. When I get up, I take the Lexapro at about 7am now and am sleepy most of the day. Also, I hate to bring *this* up, but I will. I am starting to get really bad *runs* (I am soooooooo sorry, but it's true) now at 2 weeks on the Lex? Is this weird? I'm not sure how to approach this or just let it go???
Any thoughts?
Thank you.

I was up ALL DANG NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am so discouraged about this. I have NEVER had a problem like this with any other SSRI before.
What can I do next? Anyone Anyone???? Please, I am open to any suggestion. I am completely, utterly at a loss.

I feel less tired during the day ever since I started taking Lexapro in the evening. I used to take it in the morning.

Week 2 - for me was the worst...diahrea, migranes, nausea, dizziness, lethargy, fatigue...I could go on!!!
Please give Lex a chance, it took about 7 weeks for me, and all of the side effects DO go away. I sleep better now than I ever have (suffered w/insomnia most of my life - BUT NOT NOW!!!), and Lex has been very good to me.
Hang in there, I know it's tough (BEEN THERE DONE THAT) but hopefully in a few weeks you will begin to feel the benefits.
Good Luck!~~~8|8
