Just wanted to post this for anyone wondering about SSRI, specifically lexapro. I've had anxiety my whole life never realized how much it has affected me. Mainly social anxiety and some general anxiety. Talking infront of people, overthinking everything, thinking of being judged that type of thing. I got sick of it went and got officially diagnosed. Been taking lexapro 10mg/day for a week now and I can say it's been HELPFUL. The main effect I've noticed so far is the mental silence. Obviously I'm not that far into the process and everyone might not have the same results, but just the amount the anxiety has gone down so far and seeing how bad it was is crazy. I haven't had any really side effects so far except a little tiredness. Just thought I'd share.
