So my Dr increased my Lexapro last week, from 10mg to 15mg. I have not experiences any major side effects, so I am on day 5 of the increase, chances are I won't feel the side effects. BUT, my question is...........I am still feeling SUPER nervous, I guess I can't say for no reason, but I was really hoping I would be able to cope with my issues without feeling nervous ALL DAY! My stomach is in knots. I know initially Lexapro take approx 6 weeks to actually work, I have been on 10mg for over a year, will the new increase take as long to take effect? When should I begin feeling some relief?
I am leaving for vacation Thursday, and I hate flying, I am a bundle of nerves this week, just in anticipation of flying, packing, getting the cats taken care of. You know, all the jazz that goes along with travel :) Anyhow, I am really excited for vacation, with any luck, this nervousness with subside!
Thanks!
