First, as one long-term depressive who has tried em all, to another DO NOT stop taking ANY medicine without talking to your doctor. If your next appointment is two weeks away, call his office in the morning and tell them you are having this issue and you MUST see the doctor. They always have a vacancy or two kept in their pocket for this event. I don't think either drug can make you have mood swings; if I recall both of them are designed to control mood swings, but some of these new drugs can take WEEKS to kick in properly; this ain't Tylenol you're taking here. It might be that one or both of these is the right drug for your condition, but the amount or timing is not quite right, but only your doctor can decide this from talking to you. If you aren't going to listen to him, why bother paying him; hell you're getting my advice for free why not just rely on chatrooms for your healthcare. Now, I hope you know I am being silly now. Call your doctor tomorrow. If you are in the depth of one of the deepest blacks and you are seriously afraid for your safety, call his office now even if it is the middle of Sunday night and you have to page him. If you have a gun in the house, have a friend or relative come take it away right now until you feel better. You'd feel pretty stupid if you used it tonight and tomorrow was the day the Lexapro kicked in, wouldn't you? It IS going to be ok, I give you my personal promise and guarantee, but you have to work with your doctor. Phil

Is it safe to take zanax to help with withdrawal from Lexapro?
Xanax can be prescribed by your doctor alongside lexapro and taking them at the same time is okay. I am on Lexapro and take Xanex for occasional bouts of anxiety or panic attacks. However, weening yourself off Lexapro with Xanex is probably not the best idea. If you are having withdrawal from Lexapro you should probably go back on it.

Has anyone had trouble with their gallbladder because you took Lexapro?
I did and ended it with having my gallbladder removed and weaning off Lexapro in one week. My first problems with my gallbladder arose a couple of months into taking Lexapro for the first time years before. I stopped and then I had a pregnancy and about 5 year with no lexapro. When I had a traumatic family sitiuation I tried Lexapro again and again a couple of months into it I started to have gallbladder attacks. I took one lexapro after my surgery and it made me so sick I have vowed to never touch it again. It sucked because it really did great for my anxiety.
Is having a mild anxiety OK when going down from 20mg to 15mg of Lexapro. Or is it a bad sign and I should go up again?
Lexapro is supposed to aid you in feeling less anxious, so if you feel more anxious when lowering dosage, even slightly, you may want to discuss that with your doctor, and if it persists he or she will most likely increase your dosage back to 20 mgs.
Taking 20 mg of lexapro for 2 years but having fatigue dr recommended switching from lexapro to 30 mg of Cymbalta for 2 weeks and then 60 mg has anyone switched and what was your experience?
