Lexapro Side Effects

I was first diagnosed with depression when I was 18 years old. For 9 years I’ve been in all the different types of medication, but for most of the time I was on Effexor XR. I remember when I miss a dose, just feel so bad I just want to go to bed, but when I took the next dose, do not take long to get back to normal. My memory has been scandalous. So bad that I have trouble remembering what happened when my children were babies. I do not know if this is because the side effects or depression.

Earlier this year, my life is very full and happy and I was so busy until one day I felt like I was going to die. For a week I sat in the emergency department at the hospital that some would die and leave my three children without a mother.

I was finally diagnosed with panic disorder. I do not care what I just wanted to quit. (From the way I felt) I was put Lexapro, but had a bad reaction to what they put me back on Effexor XR.

I can only say thank God! I’ve been there for almost six months and I have decided to go out again, I feel like my life is in control. The main side effects I’ve had this time on this medicine have been a clear decline in sexual function, deep sleep, vivid dreams and my pupils are dilated differently. I have over the last week dropped my dose of 75mls a day to 37.5. I really do not remember that through all these side effects last. I was at a much higher dose before, too. I had the worst migraines, I’m so tired, itchy eyes, I have what I think others have described as a shock.

When i move my head or blink my eyes feel like I got a shock in my head. I am looking through a tunnel at times too. Although I have had the same feeling when it was first put back on the meds. Yes, it’s hard to leave this time, but I still regret not taking that, in the first place. I still can not be feeling the worst feelings I’ve felt in my life and I would not wish on anyone. The effects I am getting now are not even a hint of what I went through before i start.
