Hi. I just began taking lexapro yesterday (1/10/2026). I am a 27 yo male. My mental health is trash. My brain doesn’t work. I have extreme anxiety for no reason. I am depressed all the time for no reason. Hopefully I can update this in a couple months w something positive. My life’s been pretty crazy lately so I’m hoping this eases the pain :)
Hope you find peace and happiness with the medication. Be well!
I started yesterday as well with moderate to severe anxiety. We’re in this together :)
Power through the first couple weeks. The side effects can be a little unsettling at first. By week 3, I felt like a new person. Hoping the best for you!
I was a zombie for two weeks, it made me very sleepy. But I stuck with it and noticed myself feeling better very soon after. It's been 5 months and I feel better than I ever have. Stick with it.
