Post Body

I have been on Lexapro 10 mg since last August. Beginning was rough, but when it leveled out I felt amazing.

No anxiety, no depression, calm and happy. I also started doing yoga, riding bicycle and swimming. I really invested my time in routine and health.

Sadly, after a year on 10 mg, one day I woke up with depression and anxiety. Tried to wait it out, but nothing improved, so my dr suggested to up my dose to 15 mg.

Now I’m thinking, so what if after a year it will stop working again? I’ll up and it will stop again? Why is this happening? What can be the cause?
